Default A couple of my new painted cranks

Check these out, let me know what you think. It's my first attempt at a bream or perch pattern, so take it easy on me.

what is that...a 2 inch crankbait...looks short and chubby.

The patterns are very nice and I'd say they'll catch some fish.

Yeah KD, they're 2 inches. The bream in a fat, square bill. The perch is a flat sided.

Thumbs up

Mont,

You do excellent work. I wish I had the skill and patience that you must surely possess.
Once upon a time, long ago though not far away, I had a bit of a reputation as a meticulous and creative pourer of soft plastics, so I know what's it's like to step back, look at a new creation, and say "Now THAT'S a lure!".
Keep up the good work!

They look great. Do you start with a kit, or carve from a block of wood?

Those are actually plastics. I buy them unpainted. I have made a couple from cedar. Look at my previous post...http://www.bassfishin.com/bassfishin...ad.php?t=11301

You have a nice talent there. Keep it up, but don't let it keep you off the water, and wetting a line.
