Rustimus Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 I've noticed on some of the foil baits and sometimes even on non-foiled baits, they have a "x" looking scale pattern. How is this accomplished? My only scales are put on using the ole bridal veil system and this doesnt work for foil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 some toolhandles will give the x looking scales Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 I use a 1/4" carriage bolt. Press down and roll it at a 45 deg angle from the bottom of the bait, then do the same from the top. Adjust the angle for different scale effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
