Those are some awesome craws. Have you made any in delta craw color?

Thank you! I will be painting some in that redish orange scheme soon. Will post. Thanks again!

Very clean work & paint.

Is it difficult to keep epoxy free of line tie and hook eyes?

Ever fished a rebel crawdad?  They have a nice side to side vibration that work extremely well on small-mouth.  How does this one fish?

Thank you! 

The epoxy is brushed on and they are turned on a wheel, but sometimes it will creep and plug a hole in a hook eye.  I slide a piece of wire through them before the epoxy sets up to remove the majority of it. Once it's hardened I will run a small drill bit through to remove any remaining. 

And yes, I have quite a few of the Rebel Craws in several tackle boxes around here. They work well but I haven't used any but my own in a few years. My squarebills run in a tight chatter nose down.  They have a seeking side to side action and do little random zig zags on the pause and go retrieve. Bass like them a lot. :yes:

When I first saw this I was thinking that It would hunt at least as good as the Rebel Crawfish.

I like it .. great job!
