| Thanks for the nice feedback guys, Mark the pattern on # 10 is carbon fiber, picked up at a model RC store, its amazing what you can find around when you look in the strangest places, and you say to yourself, I can use that "Oh Yea, I can use that". And know permit me to vent a little here to a PM I recieved . I will not name , names, but all baits in one form or another are "COPIES" . I don't see where that should give you the right to chastise me or anyone else for their baits. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, that's what's great about America, but sometimes keeping your opinion to yourself is better than opening your mouth, well thats enough, Thanks again to eveyone who has liked them, it's only a hobby and sometimes I share them with others.

| First of all nice paint jobs. They really do look nice.
Second, I build 10-20 baits myself every winter and have absolutely no problem copying others for my own use. If you wanted to sell them though that would be all bad.
By the way, what bait are they copies of? I couldn't tell....
J/K. Those are actually great copies. I thought you just got phantom blanks and painted them. They do look exactly alike but who cares, you're not trying to sell them. ARE YOU? |

| P.S. Muskie Treats are about the easiest to make. |

| phantom exact copy or not they look nice
imho the paint job is a lot nicer on yours
congrats |

| Nice work! I like the overall tones on #9 the most, but they are all nice baits. |
|

|
| Will you be selling any of these? There are a few colors I really like. |

Location: Money, PA | #8 WILL be a killer! Nice paint jobs....couple of Qs and suggestions though....
- Are these lures cleared/epoxyed yet? If so, I'd suggest more shine.
- I'm assuming #9 is a walleye...I think I might like the stripe pattern from #8 for your walleye....
Other than that, these lures are beautiful!

| Shutupnfish,
the pics were taken before they were clesred, they have 2 coats of etex on them when cleared, I agree w/ you on the stripes, my other walleyes have gone to the other stripe pattern you suggested. thanks for the comments , can't wait to get them wet, i have had alot of good feedback from others who have ordered and tried them. |
