Basseducer Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 I usually lurk in Wire Baits and Soft Plastics, but with all the great stuff here I thought I would try my hand. Not brave enough to start playing with knives and start whittling so I got some of Jann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Bait Co. Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 I hope when I get the nerve to try painting some cranks. They look half as good as them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 A true lure junky, not satisfied with just one addiction. Great job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palmetto Balsa Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Basseducer, you have a great start on the hardbaits, but you need to get your knife out. Heck, I've been tinkering with wood lures (topwater) since I was a preteen, and then add in tying flies, then add soft plastics and mold making. Then I find TU. Back into balsa crankbaits in a big way. I have even found time to pour some lead. By the time I'm 60, I should be able to put a whole tackle box together with all my own lures. Now go out and find a stick to carve into a torpedo type topwater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pikeman Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 bleah, ugly baits, I'd love to fish them:lol: Are u sure this are your first hardbait paint jobs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CL Rods Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Well if this is your first effort at painting baits, you've been waisting time doing other stuff. Although all that other tinkering helps. Nice looking stuff, especially if this is trully your first foil! And abstract can be sooooooo good! At least at catching fisherman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basseducer Posted May 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 Thanks guys, as usual your are too kind. I'll be hitting the local hobby stores this weekend looking for a knife and I can see a whole bunch of other stuff. And yes 76gator this really is my first foil.
