Digging around looking for something different to paint and tie and found these little 1/40 football heads with #8 sickles. It's one of Sonny's molds and I poured these on one of my trips to California. Had 22 left so painted them and tied them yesterday. Used Frostip bunny hair with flash for most of them but made a few duck jigs as well. Thought I'd drag these along bottom and might catch a few more redear.Attachment 506329Attachment 506330
Those look good. I miss Sonny's post here.
Some killer work.
Beautiful
Fantastic!
I miss his posts too. Talked with him a few months ago, need to call him again. Good friend and was a big influence and help with my painting jigs.
Very nice
I love that head!! I wish Crazy angler still did mold mods!! I tried Fat Guys and they emailed me back one time on getting a custom mold for them
I think this mold was made using a 1/32 pro mold and drilling out the cavities to make the football head. Actual weight of the pro mold ball heads are 1/43 oz.
Good looking ties Jim! They would be excellent fishing for spotted bass as well as panfish.
I like em. Smallies and bigger gill varieties will like em too. Good stuff.
Those heads work good on cricket and hellgrammite bodies as well.
