Candy Wrapper Big Babe for Dweller

Very nice Dean:worship: ,I love the colors, how in the world do you get such a nice edge on your bills!!

Thanks Stacy! I sand my bills beginning with about 400 and work progressively finer, finally finishing with 12,000 and a fine dremel buff. But you can shortcut that, depending on the degree of polishing you want. I began polishing the edges a long time ago to avoid losing fish when my line scraped across a large and rough lexan bill. It became epidemic on those high-energy schooling post-spawners, especially when leading them around the boat, and often it was fish in the 3 to 4 pound range, not a monster. Finally the light bulb came on. Until it did, I got back a lot of baits by simply sitting and waiting for the fish to throw the lure, which happened about 9 times out of 10. I've been smoothing lips ever since.

P.S. I got a new BASSMASTER today which included a tackle tip to "sharpen your buzzbait blades to a knife edge". I couldn't believe it! Of course line never wraps around the blade, does it?

Dean, you da man! Ron I can't believe he's sending that bait to you, I'm jealous of course.

Hey, I just seen it. I just got off the Lake I could have used that today. That is a River Killer! Awesome work Dean love the colors!!!

Ron,

What the hell are you going to do with that lure besides look at it ??? You cant get Cary out of 2 ft. of water on the river.... I've heard they like the 3 Musketeers up here though. LMAO
