Thanks for the kind words.I have really high hopes for the green and black one.It has glow in the dark eyes and the .035 circuit board lip.I like to call it the Quiver lip.You need to feel it on the end of your line to appreciate what it does to a cherry wood body.
Awesome job! The first one looks like a Salmo Hornet. I love them things.
You are really turning out some great work. Keep going and posting!!!

Donkey,
Beautiful work there....Love the walleye stuff, I find it much more difficult to build than Musky sized stuff.......great job keep the posts coming.
How do you like the circuit board compared to the lexan for lips?
where does one get circuit board?
How deep do the "shallow lipped" baits run (the orange/blue and purple/green)?
Well done Donkey!!

Janns Netcraft sells the circuit board bill.As far as preference I am still too new at this to answer that.Although i can say I love the vibration I feel on the bigger fiber bills.They also seem to have a more exaggerated wobble.I purposely installed larger bills than needed with plans to file them down in the field once I decide what action I want from each individual lure.Now that fishing season is beginning I will have some time on the water to assess the depths and running characteristics af each lure.
Really don't want to get this crap started again but why would you tell a man his work is foam if he is a wood carver?Do you mean the top bait
foam, foam, foam, foam, foam foam foam foam, foam, foam (sung to the beat of 2 1/2 men)....

Wasnt trying to tell you your baits were foam, but rather that the salmo hornets were foam. I had always thought they were balsa and when i learned they were made from foam i was surprised. As all eyes mentioned they are awesome lures. That tiny hornet THUMPS and has caught a 24" eye and 18.5" smallie. Salmo has some great lure designs, many of which are made from foam. I love their foam baits and have about 10 of their other models/sizes that are made from foam. Their foam is very buoyant, maybe more so than balsa and makes great baits. Wish i had some. Peace, keep up the great work. Nice designs and colors.
No worries, and apologies here too. I'll keep sports in the sports section. I got a little carried away last night, my tourney brackets are rocking right now(especially since i picked the duke upset).
Wow Donkey! You are killing me over here!!! Just beautiful!
I will be looking forward to your catch pictures once you hit the water.
