Now that's a cool idea.
Hope he catches some big crappies with them.
I did something along the same line as this only doing four color schemes using those colors of each of our 4 high schools. Made some serious $$$$ off those.
Sometimes I will get an order from a few college fishing teams wanting them in their school colors for charity events or people who enjoy the Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steeler game. It is all in fun. Once I even added a few more drops of Anise to the Brown and Orange ones so they won last year. Hey....don't be a hater...even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while. LOL
I told the Browns they won because I did my part. They told me to still buy my own jersey. I hope one of you who live in Ohio will send me the new Brown and Orange one...size large. PM if you can do this and what you might charge this old man....Military and Senior Citizen (age 70) discount please. Birthday or Christmas gifting would be appreciated. Wish list....Cleveland Browns Jersey, 14' Jon Boat, Ranch home on the lake, Previously owned F150 to tow the boat, 1.5 or 2.0" used tube mold.
That's quite a Christmas gift Mike. I just ask to be able to make it until Christmas dinner.....and the next morning. Then I ask for the same thing that night.
Cool idea, nice baits to.
I love how you think my friend. My prayers will join yours. Be blessed and keep making those wonderful fishing lures.Quote:

I would usually do a few in Hot Fluorescent Pink and Fluorescent Orange for these 5 baits too but those have been done for a while. Gotta get all this gassy work done while I'm am set up in the garage. When the temps get into the - 0 range its hard to shoot out there. I set up a booth inside but I don't like working plastic in the house even with a high volume fan sucking the bad stuff out. And the lighting is not as good as in the garage. After seeing all the tail colors Wishing cooked up I figured I'd better get in gear and get mine done. I'm just happy I don't have to make the colors he has done in the opening post pic.
I leave for the cabin again on Saturday....last of the lake trout fishing for the year and possibly some salmon will show up.
