makokeith Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Been messing around with glitter. Regular white with fine holographic glitter. Picture does not do justice. The glitter was put on right after the powder so it was embedded into the still soft powder. Was not sure it would survive the oven, but it did.

cadman Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Wow, looks good from here. I assume the top lure is for saltwater fishing. I like that all white ultra-minnow jig. Never thought of doing white on white with yellow chartreuse eyes. Top Notch work there. Job well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makokeith Posted January 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Thanks cadman , both are saltwater. The top one is for cod and pollock. It's just copper pipe filled with lead. It's about six oz. bucktail is two oz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 On the top one. Do you crimp one end, then fill with lead and then solder on a cap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makokeith Posted January 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 No, I put the cap on first. It has wire in it for the eye. I then flatten the pipe on a vise and then fill hoping not to over fill, then crimp the end. It's only my second one and really just for fun. I only go for cod once a year or so.
