I finally bought some hardwood and tried my hand at making some gliders. Color combo on this one is a little crazy, but I'm hoping the fish won't care. Weighted in the center. Small weight added where needed so it sits level in the water. I made some test casts with it and I'm pumped to fish it this summer!..would love to catch something on a homemade bait!

Wow that bait is awesome, the Black, Orange and White sure get the fish going! Great combo and nice looking glider.

Nice work. Nothing beats catching a fish on a lure you made yourself, good luck.

Very nice bait! That pattern will surely catch fish. Where did you buy white vice grips at?

Thanks guys! I appreciate the input! I've been quietly roaming the basement forum for the last year or so trying to figure out how you guys do what you do...so much amazing work and talent on this site! I was nervous to post, but now that the ice is broken, maybe I won't be such a snooper

Thanks again for the posts!
Now, to get some teeth marks on this bait....

That's primer spray on the vice grips
