Thanks, I was tired of heating my whole shop to dry the paints and stuff and it really works good surprisingly enough !!

How about this Tom, I just have to figure out that top color then clear coat, hopefully it will be close enough !!



Here is another color I have had good success with !!

Those look Great! The best thing is going to be when you see a big king on the end of one. How satisfying will that be?

How's this ?




Should look better after I clear coat it !!

[cohoho]

Thanks Mike !!

How about these ?? They still need to be clear coated and eyes but you get the idea !!




I was going to send you the first one here Tom but I have to start from square one again

What happened?

[robodad]

What happened?

Got a call from Pt Wilson Darts and they told me I better not go any further, said it cuts into their profit margin when folks find their color scheme and match it on their own. The guy offered me a job though, said i could do that painting thing all day if I wanted and even get a discount on their supplies  but I turned him down said I'm retired and have too much fishin to be doin instead of that workin thingy ya'll do, then he asked where I got all the darts from and I knew then it was over and I had to tell the truth................. speakin of which I'm lyin right now !! None of that happened, I'm just joking !!! 

Those jigs I bought had some kind of silver coating on them and the paint I used isn't stickin to em (found out after I dropped it and the paint chipped off !!) so I have to figger out a new method for em but they were lookin good I gotta say !! 


EDIT: I should clarify that all the other ones are working perfectly and have an ultra hard finish, its just the couple that I painted over that shiny silver stuff that was on them, the others I removed it before I painted them !! 

[robodad]

OK I got some eyes ordered and should be here in just a few days but other then snap rings and a hook these are a done deal !! Them fish don't stand a chance this year !! 

[huntergreg]

sweet Jigs!!

You are an artist.  They look really great. 

[robodad]

Here is one of my favorite lures of all time for all kinds of bottom dwellers !!! Never tried them with Circle hooks though so hopefully they work !! 

[huntergreg]

Those are jigs?? I saw those over at sportco and couldn't figure out what they were for. Do you have to put anything on them or just use them like a normal jig??

Nope you don't put anything on them, my theory is fish are stupid so they bite em !! 

No seriously......Nothing goes on them and you just bang them on the bottom and for some reason fish like them, don't ask me why, maybe someone here has a scientific definition but as for me, fish are stupid !!
