Jason Posted March 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Thanks for the compliments guys! I decided to fill the wholes down the side of the lure. It was supposed to represent the latteral line, but I filled them with wood filler. I can always paint a line on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted March 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Thanks Tuningguru. It's going to be roughly 5 1/2". I'm going to make a 10" version next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneCoal Tackle Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Good looking trout Jason, what kind of trout is it going to be? I vote brookie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vhype Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 I use cotter keys to attached the jointed parts together. Pre-drill the holes and link up two cotter keys and insert one with one-ton epoxy. Do one side at a time and it will hold any fresh water fish. The problem I have with making trout baits is balancing the weight to get the plug to swim! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted March 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Good looking trout Jason, what kind of trout is it going to be? I vote brookie! Thanks Daymon, I think this guy is going to be a brown trout or rainbow. I still haven't decided. Thanks Vhype for the suggestion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
