on the chartreuse do you just want the bottom/belly or the side as well. ive got some painted now and will download pics in a few. just let me know what or which you like. before i try to sale any i want to make sure ive got it right. the pictures will not have the 1st coat and the silver looks white from the sanding. once i get the 1st coat on them it will look right. im just wanting to know which paint pattern is recommended.

I like both. I know it's hard to believe but a combo with some purple is good sometimes.
Still need to know how to get them and the cost.

my phone doesn't do any justice for the colors. the chartreuse with painted scales is purple on top. the lures with white bellies are a pearl white.

as far as buying at a store or baitshop you cant yet. if you send me a pm i'll give you my number and we can chat. they take almost 3 days to finish because of the epoxy curing time. its 6hrs per layer. i put 4-5 layers over the paint and its pretty thick. those pictures above are wet with the 1st layer. as soon as i have enough made i'll hit the road talking to marinas, baitshops, and anywhere else.

sorry for no new updates this week. i took the lures out early this week to a very small lake (city playa lake) here in town. the lipless and the shallow lures were great. the deep diving lures were horrible and disgusted me. the lips cannot be adjusted to straiten the swim without the plastic cracking. ive ordered some different lips and they will be here monday. this lake only has carp and small catfish and so im not sure how theyll work on striper, whites, and hybrids but i did get a good fight out of a 2 +/- carp. i mainly wanted to test the swim action and make sure screws held up well and all but the deep divers did great.
