bassinjody Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 i was just trying to find a perch color for this crankbait i was wonndering if you shoot the black on first then the yellow over the stripes with a net to try to give it a scale pattern.

BobP Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 I shoot the orange belly first, then the gold low sides, then green high sides, then the black back and points (using a stencil). If I want scale effect, I do it when I shoot the green. But I don't really think it's necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doomdart Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 I probably wouldn't bother with the scales either, but some faint vertical browns or tans are good. Go very light on the vertical bars or stripes or you will ruin it. You can use a very wide gap comb for a stencil for spraying. I would do the belly, then sides, then vertical stripes, then back.

StoneCoal Tackle Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 Doom's right, you can do some pretty neat stuff with combs and such. I find that the dollar stores are a great place to look for things to spray through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
