Thanks guys! Hey Etch when are we going to see some more of those frogs? They are knock outs!
I want to make a trade with you for my wall of fame.

Is taht just regualr SS screen? I assume it takes a good amount of epoxy to get the bait that smooth? Nic ework on the new ones!

Hey Tigger,

What are you using for your mesh base. I really like the way that you change the grain of the mesh over the bait. Makes it look much more realistic. These baits are top notch (as always).

Hey pete, I have used cheese clothe. It gets to be messy at times. Trying to figure a way to use a vacume bag. It is used in wood veneer applications. It is hooked to a vacume and the air is sucked out of the bag. It in a way compresses the material to the bait evenly. It is moslty used for bigger things.
I am playing with some other materials also. I won't mislead you on that. Got some things I am trying. I don't mean to tease. Still seeing if I have a my little nitch and style. I appreciate the compliments everyone. I don't want to sound bla,bla,bla.

Man Tigger your baits are really nice. That has to be one of the nicest crappies I ever seen...so realistic looking.
