Wyatt Collins Posted June 20, 2020 Report Share Posted June 20, 2020 My first try at making swimbaits! 2 glidebait style baits and one floater with a diving lip. I carved the baits from cedar and embedded buckshot for weight. The trout ended up too heavy but I fine tuned the weighting for the one with the bass finish. I have yet to fish the diver but it looks good so far in my bathtub. Each bait is roughly 6". Since I don't have an airbrush yet I used rustoleum spray paint which unfortunately caused a reaction with the clear coat I used resulting in a oddly textured finish on the bass and shad. But otherwise I'm pretty happy with them. azfisher, brootalititties, TootsMalone and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
