Enjoying building at the moment

I liked my last chublet/roach swimmer that much that i decided to make another model like that. I was thinking what to do and then figured after silver fish (roach,chub and rudd mainly) in the places i fish perch was probaly the next on any predators diet. So i started carving, cutting and sanding and this is where i got so far...






I will post the finished pictures soon, Hopefully within a week. I had also made some more colours for the chublet swimmer. Im very happy how the came out.....



Till next time tight lines and thanks for looking.

First plastic baits by me

Well where to start, I have been quite busy with mold making and figuring out weighting etc. I can really say that im enjoying it so nice to be able spend more time painting and making more detailed baits. First of all my chublet swimmer/ jointed jerkbait worked much better than i could have expected it really does look like a fish in the water. I have taken one out for a quick hour test and had 2 strikes from pike, Which i think is not bad for switzerland then another day i tried a unpainted one because i was tweeking the weight/balance etc and had another 2 hits. So needless to say im happy with them, lets see what you think.....








I also made a few slider style lures i really like the action of them, very easy to fish and quite versitile anyway heres some pictures.



I have been working on some other jerkbait styles but their not ready yet. I think ill be updating this blog soon with more stuff but for now ill leave you with some under construction photos....


And heres a not so good swim test video of the chub/roach swimmer..
