Cal Bassin Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 (edited) This is my first ever lure attempt. Just got it all weighted right and it swims like a champ. Waiting for epoxy order to arrive so I can treat the wood and get it painted. Thought I would get some opinions???? Guess I should read how to add pictures!!!

carpholeo Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 looks great !, you could probably get away with shortening the joints a bit though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazmail Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Cal - you certainly started with a hard one, jointed is sooooooooo fiddly, great work. pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FERG DADDY Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 That would be awesome on one of the lakes I fish if it were painted Baby Walleye. The shape is to die for, I hope you don't mind me fashioning one after it. Can't wait to see the finished product. FERG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Cal - you certainly started with a hard one, jointed is sooooooooo fiddly, great work. pete Pete, lipless jointed baits are a lot easier than lipped lures. If you can do lipped cranks, you can build anything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summitlures Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Oh, how did you make the tail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Bassin Posted August 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Actually, borrowed it from another lure for now. I have also made a wood tail, but need to balance it still. It just finished drying from the epoxy resin, and is ready for the true test tonight. Paint it after I know it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
