Title: Another Bluegill Variation
Post by: Cheetam on January 25, 2011, 11:03:33 PM
I'm really happy with this one.  I did a few new and different things with this one, and it turned out pretty sweet.  It has a blue iridescent blown over the entire bait, so it gives off some really cool colors depending on the light.

Looks sweet.  Can you put a little sign on them to let the pike know they are not allowed to eat them?

If you had it in your possession, then I would say it is yours.  Until then, I would say it has been Bubbanapped...

I thought I had one like it.  When I met Justin, I forgot to grab it out of my truck and take it with me.  Now it has sat in my truck and the sun has faded it badly.  Looks a lot like the lemonade color now for some reason.  Must be the kind of paint you used or something.

I don't use paint.  I use food coloring.  Much friendlier for the environment.  Makes sense it would look like lemonade, since I used Yellow #5 as the base color.
