Thought i would post a pic of some recent baits. Both are 2.5". I slapped some eyes on these for personal use. Im goin to fish them side by side with the same bait with no eyes. Looking forward to the results.

Sent from a Droid.
I love your colors, my oranges never look that good and I can not seem to get my green looking that bright and pretty either. Pm me that recipe lol. Is that 3rd on just clear plastic with silver glitter it looks great
Nice looking baits RonDon
Thanks fellas! Yep that ones just glitter... A couple ounces worth!
Excellent job my friend. I also love the colors. I have been working with doing translucent coloring lately. IMHO it makes my stingers look a tad bit more realistic especially those I do in green chartreuse.

Great looking baits and color combos. It will be interesting to read the results on the 'eye project' :)
Nice work Ronny....
Jax the best way is to stick te eyes on and then dip in clear plastic. You can try to just superglue them on. Try to keep the glue under the eye only so use it sparingly!
Got to have a few of those and some KFC ones too in the boat. LOLQuote:

Also, dipping the eyes helps to keep them from being torn off. I was fishing a dock a while ago with a buddy who brought his camera along and we saw small sunfish swim up to baits with eyes and they'd literally try to suck the eyes off the plastic. Go figure. Those little sunnies were tough on even coated eyes.
What were the results?Quote:
