Spencer_518 Posted July 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 My buddy mitch helps me out with the baits. We just finished a batch of AWAKENING PERCH’s. He took on up to the Adirondacks and got into a few good smallies. Big Epp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spencer_518 Posted September 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Anyone successfully make a bait 3D printing? A kid I work with is really into it and I have him specs of my bait and took it and refined it a bit. We are working on some design details and how to make the bait more buoyant because the material is a lot denser than the poplar I work with. He is going to put some air pockets in the bait and try to get it to sit level. Thought it was pretty cool. Jim137a 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spencer_518 Posted October 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2022 I’ve been quiet on here lately but have been really putting in some work. While I’m waiting for my buddy to paint about 15 perch wakes and some cranks I’ve been playing with some one off baits for myself or maybe I’ll give them away. A rat, some glides. I’ve been really wanting to perfect a glidebait and I’m getting closer and closer to something I am happy with.

Spencer_518 Posted October 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 First fish on the dick shank rat. Threw it up into some lay downs and got a sink to eat. sent one of my perch to a local guy that paints. I think he did a great job way better than I could ever do.

Spencer_518 Posted December 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 I got some baits available that I’m trying to move before the end of the year. Trying to unload so I can kind of regroup for 2023. Next year I don’t think I’m going to be making many baits and focus more on fishing now that I have a boat. A little burnt out from hours and hours of making baits for them to be subpar and mediocre. Maybe make a few for myself but probably not going to try and sell any next year. A little discouraging seeing guys make a first bait and it’s light years ahead of mine and they just shrug it off and don’t see the opportunity for what they could do. I have the work ethic just lack the talent so I’m going to slow down for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
