I always liked the clown pattern but my favorite was a clown with a very light turquoise lateral line. What can I say, I like a little blue now and then.

Nice work as usual Brad, jerk-bait time will soon be upon us. I'm gonna finally have to learn to throw one. It produces to well in the cooler/cold to not learn it.

What can I say, I like a little blue now and then. not a clown but i was playing around with turquoise glitter tape (ala don harper) and did this little guy just for fun. definitely a spinning rod lure.

Don't know what it is about that little line but it really makes a difference. I think that you could do a lot better job than that tape though.

I think that you could do a lot better job than that tape though. yeah i was working on a bait for don and needed to see how the tape below the lateral line was going to work. that was the smallest blank i had so i tried it on that. in theory it's a good idea but getting that effect with paint is a challenge because of the small area it covers. i'm getting ready to try holographic foil for a lateral stripe and see what i get. could have potential. i do like the light refracting stripe just below the lateral line. do you have a pic of the sebille lure you want?

i think holographic and ghost jerk baits in a variety of patterns are going to be producers.

My old spooks have a line that we use to put on with a cotton swab then coat it with finger nail polish to help keep it on. That line was a 1/4 of a inch or more and the huge bass loved it.
So it doesn't have to be a fine line for me. I like them wide. It just needs to be a pretty Turquoise with Ultra Fine Rainbow Glitter in it. Or at least Purple, Green, Blue Glitter.

Well school started so I have a few hours to kill every morning now. Plus I didn't have many jerkbaits before. After I receive the next 2 shipments I should have in the neighborhood of 250 jerkbaits. Maybe I should sell 1 or 2
