Took one of my old real deal designs and made a swim bait out of it. This one is 8" inch slow sinking. I love to paint trout, and will be doing a brook and rainbow also. I made a single split swim bait because they tend to glide a bit further.

did you catch that beauty on a dry fly or nymph?
Nice work. I'd put it on the wall not in my tackle box.

Pure artist skill. Do your hands smell like fish after handling it?

I see all these crazy sick paint jobs on here. How long does it take you to paint something that well and make it look so real? I would think with all the detail that it would take some time?

This brown trout pattern does take a while. All the spots are painted on then a small white halo is airbrushed around them. All of the scales are tipped in gold like a real trout has. The airbrush has to be behaving perfectly to paint the pattern. Thanks again
