Beautiful! How do they run in the water...Tight and fast wobble? Track true?
Nice work, nice indeed.

that paintjob is amazing man. stunning, really

mont_lunker_hunter · 03-26-07, 10:37 AM

I don't know how it's gonna run. I haven't tried it yet. That's the first fat bodied i've made. I usually make flat sided, and they run true, but we'll see.

Very nicely done. I am shocked

whittler · 03-26-07, 04:27 PM

Real nice work. You do not have to look for craftsmanship, it just jumps out and grabs you.

mont_lunker_hunter · 03-26-07, 04:34 PM

Thanks fellas, I'm thinking of tryin to make a go at peddlin these things, but don't want it to be a thing where i HAVE to do it, just make one when i get time. Also, thinking about doin custom work for folks with existing baits that need face lifts. So, keep me in mind. Again, thanks for the comments.

Nice! I like that one.

I suppose it's my turn now, I'll get these orders caught up and do another species

mont_lunker_hunter · 03-26-07, 05:01 PM

well, where i'm from it's either bluegill, shad, or crawfish. So that's what i normally spend my time immitating.

mymomisbecky · 03-26-07, 05:13 PM
