Posts: 103 | Couple lures I've been working on this winter with the kids. All the lures are cedar, wire thru .051 or .062, and hand cut lips. I had an idea to improve on a flap tail design I made last year, then I decided I wanted to monster size it. So taking some influence from the Coot lure, I made a giant flap tail that I will drag a double 10 lure behind, so I can slow roll it shallow. Should be interesting! I was also playing around with the new mesh I got to create that random pattern. That's fun! The one crankbait is my interpretation of a 'greenback' walleye that they catch in Lake Winnipeg. With a very vivid emerald coloration, and lighter color than other traditional golden walleye.

Posts: 103 | Thanks muskyjim! The mesh is called Darice Metallic mesh. I bought it off amazon for a few bucks, it is a lot of fun to play with! https://www.amazon.com/Darice-2913-106-Metallic-Purple-6inx8yd/dp/B0... I got the idea from a youtuber who paints baits, she uses it and has a lot of great tips to get good results. Check her out. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLAOxMZ464-E11O4E-77wFQ | ||
