Husky Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 You are more then welcome axman. We will be watching for a fishing report. The finished bait with rattles sounds like a winner. 2 more quick questions, please. What did you make your mold out of and what type of resin did you cast the plug from? I'm guessing Silicone for the mold and and Featherlite for the Lures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axman Posted July 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 thanks again! i worked the balsa wood during a day.i had watching a lot of bass photos for face details.Lot of patience!This is my 3 popper, the first and second are in balsa wood, and they are very simples: my first popper in "fire bass color" and the second in "carp color" well, i think that the last is the best. I have too a crankbait of a very very jointed crab, but this is top secret still jejej [/img]http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0VADzAksZQx6GgCFe7aCU4BIZ9dbnaHksgHtaMKzarAI5SAtG0t4ZKda3lnpaSlArCfPRspjFECoE*Gm1nHqqKRCZTe4iwQHCEka7Ur5oiyyaxxONw3UyiJLSbWB9sZEd/000_0096.JPG?dc=4675480662299936221http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0VAApA0QZLxwyVICxLFXYxIOkkSsxrnSrWnsE2ATBFdvGjmLmKMHoe7AIukS7MymyHvvVrafs2mVL2U8LkqqqJoZGyVwdcwmVMyx6XEe2E9zpkzXnE68DNjKEkrd3Pg00/000_0107.JPG?dc=4675480662014177730[/img] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
