Jim- Thanks for the nice comments, and yes, I have several full boxes of my homemade baits and am working on more almost daily. Haven't counted them but am building quite a collection. Losing them once in a while is inevitable, but I always carry a lure knocker in my boat so it's kept to a minimum.
LatinoHeat- VC111 is Vince, who started me on this hobby several years ago through looking at his amazing work in the "Fired Up The Airbrush" thread at the top of this section. If you start at the beginning of that long running thread, you will see some of the highest quality works of lure art in the world done by him and many other incredible builders. It is a section more concentrated on musky baits, so I usually post these bass and walleye cranks in a separate thread. Always appreciate the interest and kind words. More to come shortly.
