Been painting wakebait almost exclusively the past few days here are a few pics of my favorites so far. Now if the fish like them that will be a big plus.

Brad..I see all these great baits and paint jobs, and I'm very envious of your talent.
My question is do you use these just for you, and what is your most productive lure/design..?

Probably my most productive pattern has been the ghost splatterback and the bone copper shad like the wake bait c worthy likes. It's hard to say really though because I have spent more time throwing those 2 patterns than any of my others. I paint mostly for myself and friends, but I do a few for other people shoot me a pm if your interested in having some done.

Thanks for the compliments guys, hopefully I'll get this lower unit taken care of this week and can order more blanks and start painting a bunch again.

Great work Brad....very clean color transition. Sometimes the real trick to painting a fish catching pattern is knowing when to quit (not overdo it). I can't find that blank in stock anywhere??? Those wake baits look like big bass jawbusters to me. Maybe you should call that color pattern "Jawbuster"..... cause you know its gonna' thumb

I sure need the fish to eat these things up on saturday, since all the rain my crankbait bite has died and need to find a way to put a few more in the boat.


I will be doing some gills on the wakes when I can get more blanks in.
