Twenty seven bass on this "repainted" lure yesterday...best results to date. All of them came from an old flooded tank dam topping out at nine foot deep. I use this XD3 pattern whenever conditions are right. Probably gonna do a few more XD3 repaints! Posted this step by step pattern a while back: XD3 repaint Keep thinking good thoughts and keep fishing.

And I need a few of those from you to Boisarc. They look like the same bodies I got from you last time, is that correct?

It was stripped and repainted in a pattern I dreamed up one afternoon. I just wish I could get real unpainted StrikeKing blanks...or good KO's of the XD models. I love the blanks but the finish and hardware leave something to be desired...in my humble opinion... sorry StrikeKing, just sayin' . I've done several repaints and refits of their XD's and they all produce very well .

Different lake same results...landed six bass in about 30 minutes along the edge of sparce lillypads growing out to about 7-8 feet on a small secondary point that drops off quickly to 15 foot. The fat bill on the lure makes it a little easier to crawl thru the stems of the pads. Here are a few pics of the catch. Got a favorite pattern you'd like to have on an XD style crankbait? PM me and lets discuss it.
