Spike-A-Pike Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 The gills, perch patterns, and Shad dots can all be make from stencils. Spend some cutting them out and shooting a practice plug until you get the effect your looking for. At least try it because if it doesn't turn out like you want, you'll give the hardcore painters on TU a better way to help - If Rome wasn't built in an afternoon of beer drinking, a, hey, anyone know how long to took to build Rome??? Com'on boys, I'm trying to post something... Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellow gambler Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 I cut the net out of a .75 cent minnow net. Then place it in a needle point hoop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike-A-Pike Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Does that work with the hoop becuase you paint the backs and bellies solid colors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
