Thank you TU

After spending lots of time on the "learning curve", finally I've finished few pieces of "strange looking" wood . One of the reasons that they look like fishing lures is this forum. Without your knowledge ( and willingness to share it here) I will be probably still in the "deep woods" I'm probably exagerrating little bit, thinking that I've left that place (deep woods) already. Any way I would like to thank you all for sharing. Anything looking somewhat similar to work posted by some is only because I've needed little bit of inspiration. By no means it was attempt to "copy cat"' just for some reason I've loved the shape.
So here they are, my first, hopefully not last, bathtub and swimming pool tested. I'm nervous, please be gentle

Hey, those are very well done! You should be proud. My first baits looked really bad and no where near as good as these.

Re: Thank you TU

Keram, I am also on that learning curve but a few months behind you by the look of your lures. If any of my future lures resemble any of the ones you have just posted I want you to understand any resemblance is purely coincidental!!!

I think I will have to invest in an air brush. I assume this is what everyone uses to paint their lures? I also assume an air brush is just a mini spray gun?

Great lures.
