  1. Yep, just email him, it seems like he usually checks his emails towards the end of the day. Always replies to me too. Last i emailed him was a month ago asking about new swim baits, he told me he was working on a few but he was very busy. He told me to email him back in about a month and they should be about done.
  2. They may get to many sample requests!! I always just buy the mold, if I don't like it, I sell it on ebay for a couple dollars less. I always ignore sample requests myself, over 70% of the time the customer never comes back. Some just want a few free baits at my expense.
  3. I used to pour the 4" version, I used them on jig heads or texas rigged with a weighted hook. They swim very very nice!! The only person I've seen selling them is Home You might try before you buy, to make sure it's what you want.
  4. I think the dealer would be responsible for the tax, beats me though. It'd be nice if they made tax documents that make sense to the average joe.
  5. I was told that Threadfin Shad was the closest smell to berkley. I never did try it though. Don't use the Berkley bottled scents though, they have water in them. So they will make your plastic bubble up on you.
  6. Those look good! Do you have any soft water in Michigan to fish?
  7. 152nd Street Baits........for the finest hand poured baits on the block!
  8. It'll come tonight, as promised...lol I don't have to many colors to choose from, so I'll have to wing it!
  9. Hey, I'm new here!! At least new to the hard bait forums. I just picked up an Iwata Eclipse HP-CS from Hobby Lobby with a %40 off coupon!! I also bought a few bottles of creatix (SP?) paint, they really didn't have much of a selection for the paint. That was pretty much the only airbrush they had too, hope it's good though. I'll be sure to post some pictures tonight of my first bait...good or bad...it will come later today...lol I'm just going to repaint a lure that I rarely use. Wish me luck!

    So was the first dip green?? Or is the brown more of a roadkill color, with green colorant/copper pearl?

    Great looking color!! The two colors came together nicely!
  12. I personally think a bass will eat just about anything. It's the fishermen who are picky!

    Have you had a chance to test those lures? How's the action? Look very very nice btw!
  15. Must be red-eye from the flash on the camera.....
  16. He's a big tease...a couple days!!
  17. Looks tomato'ish to me!
  18. Very nice looking!! Good work as always! The eyes look cool on that frog!
  19. No recipe, but a guess! 1st. Black (of course) 2nd. 1 Drop LC rootbeer/2 oz. of plastic -half a smidgen of Pearl Copper (4 match stick heads if you don't have the LC spoons..give or take) 3rd. MF Amber Green I know the second pour sounds funky, but it really works nice for a brownish vein.
  20. The feet on bob's mold fills with ease, you might want to try his if you haven't already.
  21. I don't really use the primary colors if you go off the color names (Except yellow and blue). Like Del's watermelon is green, but I'm not considering watermelon to be a primary color, I'm calling his regular green the primary green! Black doesn't make much of a motor oil. Del does have a really nice motor oil though! I used to use Del's Root Beer the most, but it's not on his site anymore (except on the colorant Set choices) Here's my favorites from Del in the Large Colorant Set: 1 Root Beer (it's listed there!) 2 Black 3 Light Watermelon 4 Pumpkin 5 Green Pumpkin 6 June Bug 7 Marine Blue 8 Flor. Yellow 9 Yellow 10 Motor Oil Keep in mind, those are just my favorites from Del-Mart, I own and use them all. I'm sure you'll get some more opinions!
  22. After to many reheats clear plastic will start to turn on ya....not your fault, just the nature of using clear plastic! You can add some color to it and it should turn out just fine though, if you're wanting to save the plastic.
  23. LOL, I don't know what I'd do with 600 of them anyways!!
  24. Jim you must have drove up the prices, they quoted me for $127!
  25. Ah yes, I thought you were the one who told me!! Didn't want to be wrong though! lol
