So this is something interesting and new I have created inspired by an on the market lure, but taken to a whole new level. The water dispersion and slow fluttering fall are amazing. I've only made a handfull so far. Have to get more supplies to keep them going. What do you guys think? Was digging through a box of odds and ends hooks and blades and found some prop blades and this idea shot into my head.

I posted some new pics to the gallery. I would love to get some comments. Is this a citrus shad?

I’d look at the length of the lip first and then the position of the line tie in relation to the lip. It’s interesting how small a lip surface is required to get a squarebill to perform. Look at the lip on a Mann’s Baby -1 crankbait - They’re tiny. I like the line tie to be right down on the lip’s surface to give it the widest side-to-side wiggle.

well irregardless. I still use etex..lol..we still spray auto clears and lacquers. mind you we have blower systems,rubber gloves etc..was a welder for a living...still here a senior still building lures everyday. 40 years and counting. an old friend that passed last year painted till 90 years old,died at 92. his averages were over 150,000 spoons stamped and painted yearly..,he never even had a blower system and heated with kerosene .

After all the years of being on this forum I have never seen someone post a formula for plastic. You did it just to help and I respect that. The original question was how to make it not the cost. You keep doing what you are doing and your help will come back to you in some form. This forum needs more people that are willing to share knowledge. To be honest it is probably the only post in years that I copy and pasted it to my notes. In fact I copy them both.

I mix multiple colors to get the combinations I want. As long as you don't have lumps in the separate colors, you will wind up with a different shade/color. Just have to shake the mixture up really well.
