Ozark_Basser Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 That firetiger looks sick. I dig the black and blue as well. Quote

She's not thrilled with the idea hahaha... Anyway I'm glad yall like them ... theres nothing more satisfying then catching a big old spot on a bait you made 1 Quote
mixb7 Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Mitchell, These are really nice! I have been making lures for three years and I know the hard work it is to make crankbaits. Those buggers are the hardest to keep consistent. So what I'm saying is anyone can paint a lure, but to make a consistent crankbait is what impressed me the most. Keep up the GREAT work! Mike Quote
Super User Sam Posted December 27, 2014 Super User Posted December 27, 2014 Mitchell, they are all beautiful and will work on Virginia rivers. The Firetigers would be dynamite on the Historic James River. Quote
