Here are our first twitch / crank baits my son and I have made this winter. First attempt at baitmaking / painting. After a little trial and error we have them working perfect so we now have a bait design/weighting style we can duplicate. Have some more crankbait bodys we are currently working on and will be testing shortly.

Yes--we are having some fun working them out---- Have them weighted 2 ways--1 style light for shallow water twitching and another weighted more for deeper cranking with the slow rise on the pause. Here are some of our other body style cranks we have come up with--couple different sizes and styles. Also have some gliders we have weighted--but have not got a chance to try in the open water yet---Once we get them dialed in we will make some more. So far about 40 baits made up this winter--can't wait to start fishing them
