Man those look nice! I'm also wanting to eventually get into spraying my own baits, but have been wondering something you may know. I don't have a great outdoor area to spray (ventilation), but I heard that there are paints that you don't need to worry about that with? I believe they were water based and not lacquer but not sure. o you know anything on that? And what would be a good color selection to get to pretty much have everything I would need?

Great job. I wouldn’t have thought you were a beginner looks at those baits!

Thanks guys! Avidoutdoors… I don’t have a great ventilation system either, but a small fan helps keep what little fumes there are away. I know that’s prolly not osha approved lol, but it works! Createx and wicked paints is my main paints, go by hobby lobby and grab the essentials, greens, whites, black, and whatever others you want. But just a heads up, once you start, get ready to spend some money and a lot of time painting!! It’s addicting lol

My son is 15 and wanting to get into making baits. Where is a good place to souce molds and blanks?

Oh and those baits looks sweet!!!
