Location: Finland | thought I'd share couple of pics of my new swimbait that i have been working on for i'd say for the past month or so. since im a newbie with these type of lures this was hugely challenging for me witch is always a good thing if you want to improve your skills in pretty much anything you do. Anyway figured i should go for more natural colors with these first once, im sure i'll do some weirder non natural colors to this model too. got to add that clearcoating these things is really pain in the butt i had to do all kinds of weird wire contraptions to rig them to my drying wheel :D
and if someone wants to know how they swim you can check out this small vid i made couple of days ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXFU6qO3j8I

those 2 are 1.60oz and 5.7inch, still playing around with the weight to see what works the best but I'm guessing that's gonna be more of a next season thing since winter is just at the door over here and soon the lakes will freeze
