OK... found MY old thread.

I think Mr. Morse may have taken the prize for 2006 with this one he created with his kids. They named it the "Dirty Snowcone"!

This Jailbird was a custom... but I think it looks so good... its gonna be a standard color for 2007. I hope there aren't copywrite laws on some of these custom colors!

J, even though I like both the Kopke Cisco is by far my favorite! The picture really doesn't do this one justice as it shows up a bit dark, at least on my computer. When I ordered it I was afraid it would be as dark as the picture, but when I got it in the mail I am very pleased! It is as light as I wanted it, and I can't wait to throw it now (Oh my god, did I just say I can't wait to throw a spinnerbait! )

Travis,
Glad you liked your customs. I agree... the photos just don't do the baits justice. But, I'm a fisherman.... not a photographer... so you'll have to make due

Here is another one that looks better than the photo shows. I'm calling it Ryan's Custom Gold Crappie for lack of a better name.

Here is a neat custom color that sounded ugly but turned out pretty tasty looking. I'm calling it the CHERRY BOMB.

I like the gold crappie, very nice. I also like how you don't get too carried away with the hair and tinsel....I prefer them a little on the thin side just like the one in the pic.

The custom season is in full swing. Here are two similar yet different orders. Which do you like better? Ted's Walleye or Greg's walleye. I think they both look delicious.

The "matrix" custom color scheme may have originated by a European Pike fisherman... but its sure been popular and productive here in North America.

And.... I think the name is cool.

I can't believe we haven't done a "Firetiger" before. Hmmm.... come to think of it, I believe we did a Flashabou Firetiger for AGrimm..... but here is the "hair" version.
