How do you get that perfect honeycomb pattern painted on the lures?....minnow nets, mosquito nets, tule from fabric shop, etc.
How many work hours would it take to paint a lure? Depends on the pattern. If you already have the lure basecoated then you can paint some simple patterns in 10-15 minutes....or on the other end of that.....a high detailed bluegill pattern....45 minutes to an hour
Whats the easiest way to go about painting them?....airbrush/compressor setup is probably the easiest overall
Are there any guides on where to begin?.... Don't know of any off hand but, you can always do what I did. Go to tackleunderground.com and reasearch, look at pics, and use the search function for questions you may have. Just grab some old baits and start practicing
