woodmaker Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 I have just finished painting this swimbait to look like a bluegill for some nice bass fishing! Would anyone kindly give me some feedback on the job? Many thanks... Michael Quote
whittler Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Beautiful paint job, excellent work. Welcome Quote
guitarkid Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 I think it looks great, No wait I think it looks terrible I think you should send it my way for proper "disposal" -tumnus (just kidding it looks great!) Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted September 4, 2008 Super User Posted September 4, 2008 that is quality right there! but because of the shape, i think it looks more like "perch" than "bluegill", but either way, it still looks VERY nice and it will catch bass good job! Quote
woodmaker Posted September 4, 2008 Author Posted September 4, 2008 Thanks to you all for the nice feedback... I have also spraypainted a little trout!!! Tight lines... Michael Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted September 4, 2008 Super User Posted September 4, 2008 trout looks awesome! what is that bait that you are painting? Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted September 4, 2008 Super User Posted September 4, 2008 That is an awsome paint job but it looks more like a perch. Quote
The Next KVD Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 VERY NICE PAINT JOB! how would you like to send some my way ;D Quote
senko_77 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 trout looks awesome!what is that bait that you are painting? Dave, it's called the S-Curver swimbait. Michael, from Specimen Gear, sent me one to try out a few months back. The bait is incredible and swims so perfect. There extremely cheap for a swimbait and the ruin the fish! The paint job is donkey and you can throw it on a MH rod as long as you use heavy line. Check them out on his website..... http://www.specimengear.com/ Quote
Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted September 5, 2008 Super User Posted September 5, 2008 What is the cost on those? Web page said I had to log in to see the price? Ryan, any more info on these? Here or PM works for me.... Quote
woodmaker Posted September 5, 2008 Author Posted September 5, 2008 Thanks all for the kind words on the painting and swim performance. When that said, I honestly do not wish to have anything looking like free advertizing. I know those mentioning the lure's name mean good! So I hope we can stick to the color design, which I just wanted to hear some opinions on before painting large scale. thx. again Michael Quote
Jay_G Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 I am under the guidance that ORANGE is needed for a bluegill pattern just under the chin and running down the belly. ORANGE absolutley can make a difference. If you throw an ornage bellied frog when the bass are spawning, chances are, you will have more blowups. Quote
