BIG M Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 Here's a little set of cranks patterned after the Petey. 3/8" thick flatsides that weigh approx 1/4oz without the hooks and rings. Hot mustard or yellow craw color pattern. A little foil Bitty B thrown in for good measure. Quote
Super User islandbass Posted August 17, 2010 Super User Posted August 17, 2010 Marty, Those look great. BTW, how do you get the dimpled finish on the foil one? Quote
BIG M Posted August 18, 2010 Author Posted August 18, 2010 Thanks guys Island, I use a rachet handle that has a griper surface that makes that pattern. Just roll it over the foil. Quote
BobP Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 Nice work as usual, Marty. The Petey's are one of my favorite to fish or build. Quote
Stringjam Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 Great work, Marty! One of my favorite bait designs in one of my favorite colors! Very nice! Quote

Stringjam Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 Clue me into what a "Petey" is?steve It is a flatsided crankbait that was designed by Pete Reynolds (called the Little Petey) I believe almost 20 years ago - - a very good design, as it spawned versions of the bait by nearly every custom crank maker since.

Super User OkobojiEagle Posted September 7, 2010 Super User Posted September 7, 2010 Thanks for the education. I'm not a builder but enjoy looking at the products of those who do. steve Quote
