  1. Thanks it’s 6 1/2 inches long but once the tail is added it will be over 8inches. Gets down fairly deep(water was to dark to see) with a slow rise

    I have a trip to northern Saskatchewan to chase pike so trying to knock out a few new jerk baits to test out. 2 other styles in the works but maybe biting off more than I can chew time wise

    I suppose it's kind of like a hillbilly spinnerbait...;)

    This thing looks really cool.  I bet the pike will smash it!  I like your idea with the tail hanger!

    It’s another one of my redneckered baits that was designed for personal use with no concern on what it’s supposed to be :lolhuh:

    She will definitely get bit and don’t think it’s going to take many casts to make it happen 

  3. This is a 7inch without the tail resin jerk bait. The master was carved out of wood then molded in silicon. The curves of this bait have a purpose when it comes to distributing the weight and buoyancy. They also impact the fall on a pause. This was poured with a layer of pure resin, another layer of moderate buoyancy mix of resin/micro balloons and some lead shot in the correct location to cause some shimy as it falls and give some side roll on the jerk

    painted with with a yellow and black blotchy base coat to give a faint modeled look. Followed by lime pearl scales. Then a pearl black back and bars. Face is lime pearl and black pearl for gills. Fine gold glitter in first layer of clear coat followed by multiple layers to protect against pike teeth. The tail is held on by a threaded pin made from a large eye screw. 
     

     

  4. I hate taking photos of baits painted with pearls because I loose part of the details 

    lure was painted with a white base. Next a cream color with faint dark bronze pearl bars and a copper pearl back. Small silver scales over the sides and back. White spots freckled over the back and sides. Then a white belly slightly faded into the sides. The face I faded in some white and add black gill detail. The first layer of clear coat has fine gold glitter and then 4 more coats of KBS

    Oh come on man go out and fish it lol

  6. Not the normal style of work I am used to seeing from you but something deep down inside me wants to fish with it lol

    maybe a #9 Indian blade and some buck tail you might have the next hot pike lure lol

    id love to see that in the water. very cool!

    It got a test run at the river before I committed to painting and it looks good. The tail waves back and forth do to the freedom of the joint even. Runs shallow so should be good for burning weed beds. Also has a nice fall

    Honestly my only concern is how well the twin wires will hold up being T boned by a pike. If it experiences durability issues I will run one single blade off the back with the next one.

  8. You make some really interesting spoons and we don’t see much regarding crafting spoons on the forum so it brings something unique 

    nice work and hope to see you share more information regarding making spoons along with pics of your work 

     

  9. Something I have been putting together for stained water pike to make a some noise. Body was carved from wood then molded. Then poured with a combo of resin and lead bird shot. Painted in a pearl rainbow trout pattern and clear coated in KBS.  Prop has two cupped washers to add some rattle. Twin willow leaf blades for additional flash and vibration. The twister tail is on a corkscrew keeper so it can be swapped for other colors or a new tail once damaged.

    There she is and even if you judges don’t like it I know the pike will :lolhuh:
