So what do y'all think? I am not thrilled with the Jointed one but I did what I could ;D

I went for shad imitations since that is 1 of the 2 biggest forage we have on the lake

Jointed Wakebait

That shad is awesome even if it didn't turn out the way you wanted .

look great

[Steven Ladner]

Looks good, especially for them to be your first ones.

Nice work. Some people got it, and some people don't. You have it and I know I don't. You're way ahead of me. I can't paint worth a darn.

Thanks Guys! I really need to get the bluegill pattern down now lol

Just need to get some more practice in. I need to go catch some fish on it too ;D

I love the pop-r but that jointed wakebait was a POS. I used it today and after 3 casts the front eyelet pulled right out of the bait  :-[

It was only a 1.80 bait from Predatorbassbaits, it didn't run true or anything so it wasn't a big loss to me, but I did put some time into it. Now I see what you guys talk about when you say you just do repaints

Thanks for all the compliments guys 8-)

some of my best patterns have been the ones that didn't quite turn out the way that I had envisioned.

Good job by the way
