Title: trade baits for paint jobs?
Post by: bob o on March 04, 2010, 10:33:33 AM
i've found even more hard bait's to trade at the swap meet or the brewery ;). 5 more new rouges, pop'rs  and misc other crankbaits etc. i would like to trade these for re-paintjobs of other crankbaits waiting for there new fighting colors. i also have a BIG box of plastic tubes and sticks also if you would rather have soft baits instead fo hard baits.

later

I'm about to start working on some baits to bring. Feel free to suggest some patterns you would like to see.

I'll see what I can do. I believe Cheetam did a log perch last year. I might need help with the colors on both of those (did I mention I was color blind?). Not exactly what you look for in a painter. Right now I'm working on some gold sexy shads, after that maybe try some smallmouth, and perch patterns. I will give the log perch, and the goby a shot. Do's anyone like Strike King crankbaits? I got a ton of those to paint, and a few baby 1 minuses, Deep little N's, DD 22's, Bandit 200's, Red eye shads, Zara spooks, and a few others.
On a side note. Anybody like the Mann's C-4? I'll paint those and practically give them away.(way to hard to reel in) Bob, you or anybody else can PM me with lure preferences. Otherwise I'm just gonna paint a random mix.

cheetam does both patterns. just mix them up but just a reminder paint the bottom feeders (gobys) on the deep diving cranks and the minnow patterns on the not so deep divers.
are you really color blind or are you just kidding?

I wish I was kidding. Maybe I should have kept that to myself, lol. I mostly have trouble with greens, browns,and golds. I got a good group of people that help with the colors though.
