Dirtyeggroll Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 Very cool! You’re gonna be one of the big names in the swimbait must haves if you continue to produce stuff like this. Especially if you say this is your first go around! VolunteerSwimbaits 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ill remember you if i ever get big. Haha. That means alot. Not really focusing on making a profit or even selling yet. Just really enjoy the process. Each bait is like a child to me, i spend a lot of time, sweat, and money on them, then i throw them in the water and.... well scratch the last part, but each bait i learn something new. Hopefully i will get into some resin baits whenever i get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony walker Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 Looks great, wish I could build baits like that! Was it hard to carve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With it just being a 2x4, yes it was quite difficult, but i always seem to find a ghetto/jerry-rigged way around things. Most of my earlier baits are made from scrap wood, and scrap parts i find laying around the garage. Thanks for the comment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishhct Posted December 21, 2018 Report Share Posted December 21, 2018 the mother is alot more rounded at the top which may effect the swim. Just an idea for future changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah im sure it did but just for future models they use bass wood and the profile is a lot more rounded. Swim bait making is a fun craft keep at it VolunteerSwimbaits 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
