tried a little different technique on this version and used blanks from a another supplier who had a different holographic pattern. had some suggestions to show more of the yellow highlight on the flanks of the bait...soooo...here they are. all have the same holographic pattern but the jerk bait show it the best in the pics.

thanks "cw". by the way, we wore them out on those chatterbaits at ray roberts yesterday morning. it was great fun. we've got a tournament this weekend and that's probably all we're gonna throw when the top water bite goes away.

Never lost a bait either did you smile I love those baits. I have started making my own in-line spinners again. Just can't find what I want and when I do, I am too cheap to pay the price. LOL

wow i haven't thrown an in-line spinner in a long time. first bass i ever caught was on an in-line. got a box of them around here somewhere. post some pics when you get some made.
and no we didn't loose any. we tried though. threw them in some hairy stuff and got them hung up a few times but always managed to get them back.

Those look very nice bc, I'm still liking the 1st one better, but that just a personal preference of the foil.

yeah the foils are definitely different. not sure i prefer one over the other at this point. i want to see them both in the water.

As fast as the crankbaits are going by a fish I really doubt one foil will be better than the others all the fish will see is the flash and the colors. Regardless of the foil they both look really good and should be very productive this fall.

Those look awesome! I'm a big fan of purple back shad baits.
