Had issues with this dang things all weekend I forgot how big a pita the yellow was trying to dip with ac1315 finally got it to work tonight on the 3rd set of baits. Customer also left the option for the 2.5 open to whatever I wanted to do so I stuck the the char. Blk theme he had going and did a splatterback instead of scale mask.

Really like the splatterback design Brad just add a lateral line and kill dot and that would be perfect.

Looks good

It's a nice effect as it is ... thinkin' a straight black lateral line and kill dot would be icing on the cake

I think that might be too much that's why I stopped where I did

Its perfect like it is...just spitballing...offering up suggestions. Your splatterbacks are a thing of beauty...you've got it down to a science.

Funny you guys say that because it's probably the easiest effect to do I would to that all day instead to fades or scale mask if I could

Looks great can't wait to try them out!

Black and Chartreuse has probably caught more bass than any color combo. Here's an idea...Pearl Black over Chartreuse...fade the pearl Black to Pearl Copper over the head, nose and upper gill plates on this pattern.

Hey I think all of your guys' baits look fantastic by the way. Quick question: what is the point of the splatterback? Is it just a different finish you like to do or does it functionally serve a purpose?

I have had very good success with the splatterback shad I do after the turnover and with a silent in highly fished areas I think it just because it's slightly different than most of the baits being thrown.

Makes sense, thanks

You put them in the mail yet? I've been gone a week in Oklahoma. Your mailbox is full?

Those look like a '69 Chevelle SS I had, Black vinyl top over yellow body with black racing stripes...

Is that folkart neon yellow paint?
