Location: Verona, WI		It's been over a year since I made a bait but here's a crappie pattern I just got done doing. Bait's 6" long with through wire instead of screw eyes. Wish the pictures were better - this was taken with a photo box with indirect lighting but I have to play with it some more I guess.

Location: Verona, WI		Thanks! I wish I could get a decent picture as there are actually two sets if scaling - a bigger green on the back on silver on the sides. Taking a quality picture of a bait is something I struggle with.

How was the through-wire experiment?

Location: Verona, WI		The through wire went amazingly well - I'll post a few pictures of the wiring template. I was amazed at how much impact the through wire had on the lead required for the bait compared to screw eyes.
