Had this weird idea a few days ago, since I normally throw either citrus or char/blue back deep divers I would put the two together into one bait. Still needs a little fine tuning had some brush issues from not cleaning properly this morning. I am happy with the first run though. Here is chartruese citrus

It's not far off from parrot your correct in that. The lighting in the garage is not real good and kinda makes the colors hard to see I'll get some better pics taken when they are cured.

Biggest crankbait fish I ever caught came on a parrot deep diver was 9lbs 5oz I believe.

You don't how close I came to painting this exact color a week or so ago. Just makes sense that it would work good color wise. Those look great. What are those deep blanks that you are using that have the bend in the bill?

It's a copy of a lc moonsalt 350 I get them from getbitcustombaits.com he calls them a deep 10 really nice blank, no prep needed, runs true, has weight transfer, and cast great. Probably my favorite medium diver.
