    1.5 bluegill.
  2. I like cork. I grew up fishing with it on my rods and Im sticking with it. I have a couple rods with foam grips. nothing wrong with them at all, I just prefer the cork feel.
  3. I use http://dakotalakestackle.com & http://bustinbassbaits.com
  4. I will try and start from light colors to dark colors. Ex: White, yellow, orange, red, blue, black I take 1 paper towel rip it in half and clead my brush that way. I then spray out the excess on my paint booth. Ill add a darker color and spray the airbrush until I know the new color has taken over. I used to clean very thoroughly with cleaner and q-tips but I was taking way to long to clean just to dump more paint in the brush. My new method works like a charm.
  5. Airbrush: I use a Paasche talon airbrush. Epoxy I always buy Devcon 2 ton epoxy (off ebay) Flakes/Glitter I will use the flakes from Caneycreekmolds.com (http://www.caneycreekmolds.com/High-Heat-Hex-Glitter-008_p_374.html). They are for soft plastics but they will work on crankbaits. I do not shoot the epoxy or flakes. I simply mix the epoxy on a paper plate and add in the flakes then brush that on the crank bait. After that I will use my Rod turner that I bought from Mudhole.com with some round polyethylene foam duct taped to it and leave the crankbait rotating overnight until the epoxy levels out and dries. Compressor For the compressor I went to home depot and bought a 100psi tank with a generator on top.
  6. What I would do is skip the white base coat and use transparent colors. Make sure to use as little paint as possible. I will have to try this and share the recipe.
  7. Oops i didnt mean to say "hell all...." I meant Hi all. Lol sorry
  8. Okay. Thanks for the info.
  9. Hell all I have been lurking around for a while and just decided to join so I can share my work and see yours. This is my newest crankbait that I finished painted this morning. I am letting them set over night and I will clear coat them tomorrow. It is a bluegill with a twist of my imagination. Let me know what you think.
