Thank you and I sent you a PM.

I think if you're rich enough to gold plate the heads, then I paid too much for my pink'ens

(which, by the way, have put over 20 Slabs in my boat so far this year !!)

But, seriously buddy ... lookin good, as always !!

Thank you!
Well I had these done years ago as far as the plating goes. I use to send out a bunch of Roadrunner heads to get Gold and some Nickel plated. I was sending them with a guy that was having a lot done so he didn't charge me all that much to do them. I tucked them away and have not been using them. This guy had got some like this from me before and I told him this time was probably the last for the Gold Plated ones and I did charge him extra for this and no I am not selling any more of my Roadrunners plated heads, LOL!

I have a good way of doing a good Gold paint, but it has to go over a pretty nice bright head and the Roadrunner heads are not bright enough to do that well. I do have a bunch of gold plated round heads and even some minnow heads, all bought years ago and the Gold I originally got some of them for painting over with candy colors as they come out different then going over just lead or over even Nickel plating.

Glad to hear your pink'ens are putting some in the boat for you!

Awesome, I use 1/8th all the time in deeper water, they work great. Great job on those, they will work fine.
