Nice color combo and even better fish.

I'm thinking about converting the kitchen sink into a livewell...you know, for when I can't clean them until I've finished my other chores. I wouldn't actually convert it. It would be more like dual-use.

Anyone want to ask my wife if it would be okay?

Electric Chickens!

This is for all my new friends on the DIY Plastics board and also my old friends like David, Keith and Bob. I thank you for your kind words and encouragement as I practice making soft plastic baits. Bob and Keith are very good mentors to follow for anyone trying to learn how to do this...and I thank them.

G..my wife said I had better get those freaking fish out of her kitchen sink and into the pan real quick and clean up the sink afterward. I guess when it warms up I will ne back to doing the fillet jobs outside on the deck again. :yikes

Jaxsprat that color combination has been around forever. I first saw it on the jig tying board about 3ight years back when I was learning to tie jigs. This is the first time I tried to combine the two colors in soft plastic. Up until about a week ago I only attempted shooting one color jigs because that was all I knew how to do. My mentors were patient and explained the two color process and these are the results. I will probably just do two colors from now on knowing the crappies will see one of them.

Chartreuseand will be my favorite. LOL :biggrin :biggrin
