| Just thought I would show a few of the baits I just completed for the up coming season. These baits are handcrafted from poplar. The lips are made from lexan & I use VMC cone cut 3/0 hooks on these baits. The eyescrews are .092 Stainless Steel & I use triple ring 200 lb test Wolverine Split rings. Each bait is turned, sealed, primed, base color painted, detail painted & two coats of Envirotex Lite for a clearcoat with glitter added. These baits come with rear hooks dressed & handtied by me or just plain hooks. Comments welcome.

| Why wouldn't you just leave the topwaters lipless?
Uh oh, theres his next bait. WTD topwater.
Ever thought of any other paint designs? Scaling? EVERYTHING I see has that crappie/firetiger marking. What's the deal?

:o
The reason I didn't just leave the topwaters lipless is because when the person ordered these baits thats what he requested. Also I like the action of the lure created by the lip. Hope this answers your question. Thanks. Ken |

| Just wanted you to know that I don't only do the firetiger pattern. And yes these lures do work. Firetiger pattern & even bare wood clearcoated.

Well I gave it some thought muskyfvr but can't figure out how to turn pickles, cheese or the bun on a lathe. And as for Fred (sorry I mean guest) just thought I would show you some that don't have the fire tiger pattern.
