Well have not tied any 1/8 Oz in a while so decided since I was painting some I would also include some 1/8 Oz.

This looks deadly.
Makes me want one.

Loving that!! One of the boys was looking over my shoulder and love it too! What type of head is that? Is that a head you can purchase, or did you dip it yourself?
Those colors look like you would be deadly in the cold seasons!
Looks perfect as normal Skip!

I do also use them without paint and just the plating, but some I paint like this. It's costly because the head alone is not cheap and then sending them to get plated and back so it's not for everyone for sure.
Hey Skip, When you plate those heads does the crane swivel still work? I use to do chrome platting and anytime we put anything in the tank it got plated. Also, want to say I really liked the video on your son. Thank God we have brave men and women dedicating their lives so we can be truly free. You got to be a very proud father. Home of the Free because of the Brave !!! Thanks for sharing your beautiful artwork ............
Plum Crazy Purple - Mopar That's one good lookin' bait
Go LSU Tigers. Bet them Hawkeyes in the Outback bowl. Skip that is one that you would want to use on bowl day. If not bowl day then on the first day of lent or Fat Tuesday. Nice tie. Will it take a few big Fat Slab Crappies you bet. Nice job.

Yes it coats everything, but it has no effect to the swivels except color change of course, LOL!Quote:

That is to pretty to throw in the water. Thanks :cheers2 Gary
One sharp Roadrunner!
that purple & another lighter shade of purple are without a doubt the hottest Winter colors when combined with chartreuse & blue hackle, that I know of on my home lake! Skip has one of them "bottomless" checkbook's (yeah, right! LOL!) so he can do the plating thing. That candy purple also looks great on top of a chrome or a good silver even. It's a great top coat!Quote:
