dan82205 Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 Well here is where im at on my first attempt at foil think its looking pretty sweet so far. Just gotta add the lip and do a couple more things and ill be done. Will post another pic when its finished. Dan Quote
BIG M Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 I would say that's pretty good for your 1st attempt or 100th attempt. Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted August 24, 2008 Super User Posted August 24, 2008 that looks great! it has a great pumpkinseed shape to it just curious, why do you add the lip after you have put the foil and epoxy on the bait? Quote
-ebby- Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 very nice! but did you use 5 min epoxy to seal it? it looked like there was a tube in the pic of 5 min, if so you should probably put another layer of 2ton (30min) over it just to be safe Quote
dan82205 Posted August 25, 2008 Author Posted August 25, 2008 Well normally i dont add the lip after but didnt know what to do with the foil Quote
dan82205 Posted August 25, 2008 Author Posted August 25, 2008 Nope i used the 2 Ton to seal it just still had the 5 minute sitting out Dan Quote
dan82205 Posted August 28, 2008 Author Posted August 28, 2008 Well here it is turned out really good pretty proud of this one. Now i really got the itch to make some more ;D Dan Quote

Super User .dsaavedra. Posted August 31, 2008 Super User Posted August 31, 2008 that is a bait to be proud of Quote
dan82205 Posted September 1, 2008 Author Posted September 1, 2008 ahh they'll get the job done What kind of hooks you use??? Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted September 1, 2008 Super User Posted September 1, 2008 they will do the job until you put them in your tacklebox when theyre wet and they rust to nothing! i use gamakatsu's Quote
MichiganFisherman Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 That's one pretty looking bait. Let's hope the fish think so too! I'm interested in how you did the foil and paint. Care to share? Quote
dan82205 Posted September 4, 2008 Author Posted September 4, 2008 I just use the directions here http://www.stripersonline.com/surftalk/showthread.php?t=483007 Was actually pretty easy then i just shaded in the top and bottom with spray paint. Dan Quote
