Random quote: Muskies are nasty. They stink. They taste bad. They are hard to catch and will disappoint even the most devoted angler. The lures required cost more than some women's jewelry. The rods and reels require a remortgage of the house. The boat is always worth more than the tow vehicle. Sure beats the hell out of golf.

Hi guys i just wanted to share some of the baits i made recently. After one year of lurking and learning from everyone on this page it time for to start sharing my lures.

These baits are 10.5 inches long and about 1 1/4 wide. Their first swim was last weekend at St. Clair and they took half our fish! Nothing monsterous yet, just some fun fish. You can see that a few of the batis have some nice teeth marks in them. My friends and are going back up there in 2 weeks to give it another try.

These baits have a pretty good thump. I just about have them figured out to change the action in a desired way. I am guess they dive up 12 - 15ft....?

Enjoy the pics.

Thank you all for the kind words. All the guys on this site give me some really good ideas

I will have a $9 once i get done with my walleye baits for the upcoming L. Erie night bite.

I have some requests from a Charter buddy at St. Clair. to paint a bunch of different carp, walleye, and perch colors. I really like painting the walleye and perch. I keep trying to think up a good bluegill.

I will post them as they are complete. i may even voyage into glass eyes. We will see.

I wish I had the baits with me. The lips are round and between 1 3/4 and 2 inches wide. They petrude out from the bait 1 3/4 inches. The width of the body is 1 1/2 inches.

The actions range from a tight fast wiggle to a big wide wiggle with a healthy thump.

I have a new idea for another shape that I will start making later this month or early next. Plus i will continue to make more of this body. They will be getting some hard fishing next weekend. Let's pray the weather is nice.
