I Love the Beaver Tail!!!:p

... and I really like those plastics too!

you are terrible mo showing pictures like that make the time angry:Despecially when you put eyeballs on them. Okay I got asked how did you put the eye is on the plastic particles embedded. You did one hell of a job or mo I definitely like that core shot those were some terrific looking plastic baits. You look like you've been doing it for 100 years. You truly show the professional personality that you have when it comes to making plastic baits keep up the good work.

Thanks for the kind words,but I'm just trying to catch up to you lol the eye balls are sticker ones clear coated. I like the way the look but it takes a little time. The core shot is well..... Ok I cheated. I took two pieces of aluminum bolted them together and took a drill bit and drilled a hole between the two plates. I then inject the hole and I have a perfect long tube of plastic. I cut a piece off place it in my mold and shoot another color. It looks just like a core shot. I havent found a sure way of core shooting a multicavity mold yet.

I have not tried your method but it sounds good all have to try that. There is one other way I haven't tried yet cutting a piece off of both sides of your plastic bait and reshooting it with clear I know it would be very time-consuming but it should look fantastic. Were wanting to try a soldering gun and put lines down the plastic baits body and shoot to have stripes on your bait that will be very time-consuming but you would have an awesome look in bait. We also thought about putting a spiral down the body also it would look like you would have stripes on your plastic bait.

cant wait to see what you come up with. One thing that stinks about crappie lures is they are so small you cant do alot of the cool pouring tricks you can with bass baits

Nice looking baits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
