Photofinish but I go over the colours with my airbrush to bring them out. Also the face and gill are paint along with the back and belly
-
You did awesome.. that Mikko has great tips
-
It looks really cool

Also Miko, this way of weighting them gives them a great wiggling action when sinking, will the one or two holes still give them that affect? When I weight my topwater spooks I now use 2 large holes in the middle to weight and they seem to have the best walk the dog action I've had yet.. Maybe the one or two holes in the middle will give my jerkbaits more of a walk the dog effect..

Thanks Mikko.. I actually do make lead bars.. I melt my scrap lead in to 2 sizes of lead bars and then when needed, I melt the lead bars into the smaller lead bars to put in the baits. Is this what you mean? Also, I weight my jerkbaits like this cause it seems to give me the action I want and it seems to make the bait sink evenly. I am going to try drilling one hole and see how it goes.I'm curious how this will affect the action.. I hope it works because it took me along time to figure out the perfect spots to weight these baits .If the one spot works and the action is still good, I will save alot of time...Always love your tips Mikko...

I usually use epoxy puddy but for these ones I used the fake wood puddy.Also for the one gentlman whos asked, I use scrap lead I buy from a scrap yard and melt in down..

Thanks Mikko, I'm actually going to try make my own rockbass eyes for them
-
Thanks crankbait.. I will try to make one of my 7 1/2 inchers a suspending

That a great Idea.. I hate using etex on swimbaits because it gets in the joints..
-
Thanks Joe..

I love the 2 with the blue on the gills, did you use a stencil for the pattern?
-
Does anyone know how to make a wood bait suspending? I've tried and can only make slow sinking or floating
-
this one is slow sinking
-
I know how to make a sinking bait and a floating bait but How do you make a wood bait suspending? anyone have info on that

Thanks Douglas
