Another newbie
Hello everyone, I just registered and I thought that I should introduce myself. My name is Dave, and I live in the Kalamazoo , Mi area. I love fishing for bass, especially topwater, because I love seeing the strike.
When I moved to this area, I was an occasional fisherman. Then, some neighbors took me fishing and were using spinnerbaits. I started making my own , and caught the lure making bug. Then a tourney guy asked me if I made any soft plastics, and showed me how to fish using a relatively unknown bait called a Senko. I was hooked. I bought a mold, plastic, colorant, glitter, scent and fished every chance I got. Now I sell my baits on ebay and it helps to pay for my hobby. I am looking forward to exchanging information with you about bass lures. I will do my best to keep you updated on new developments and connect you to folks who can help you with your custom soft plastic needs. All the best, Dave |

Welcome to the site Dave. Feel free to jump right in here and join in. I hear ya about making lures getting into your blood. I often make my own spinnerbaits, and that can be very enjoyable.

Thanks for the warm welcome! I fish Long lake and West lake routinely, because I have a place on Long and access to West through friends. I rely on my Tourney buddies to fish Gull and Austin.
Hey Bigbassin, do you know Jody Hobbs? He's a custom painter in Toledo. Check out Pics in my album. I also included a sample from Bryan at Bustinbassbaits.com Thanks, Dave Last edited by Akiyama_custom_baits; 09-07-10 at 09:52 PM. Reason: posted pics in album |
