BIG M Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Here are some new light action baits weighing 1/4oz to 3/8oz. Quote
wickyman Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 Did you use, "hooker stockings", also "fishnet" for the hexagonal shapes on the paint? I have been looking for a long time, trying to figure something out to make a lure look like that... All very great looking lures, in colors that, I, myself would use! I like them! Quote
BIG M Posted April 18, 2007 Author Posted April 18, 2007 Wickyman, it's called tulle and you can get it at Wally World in the fabric dept. Get a couple of the cheap wood hoops (different sizes) and stretch that stuff semi tight in the hoop. lay on your bait and shoot your paint, it takes a couple of lures to get the hang of it. thanks for the kind words Quote

Super User Munkin Posted April 18, 2007 Super User Posted April 18, 2007 They look nice! How did you get the pearl effect in the paint? Allen Quote
BIG M Posted April 19, 2007 Author Posted April 19, 2007 Allen, all my baits get a base coat of pearl white, then I use some pearl paints, iridesent (spelling) paint is what you see on those baits to give that look. It really shows up in the sunlight. I also have some peal additive for paint and I'll shoot that on a finished bait to get a pearl effect. Quote
Super User flechero Posted April 19, 2007 Super User Posted April 19, 2007 Big M, Awesome looking baits! Great paint jobs too! -keith Quote
