    Default Painted more jigs with crinkle paint


    I've been unable to fish much lately due to another torn rotator cuff that I will have surgery on Thursday so I've been working on my painting techniques. Colors on these are amazing and my camera skills don't due these justice. Been spending a lot of time using a file to make sure the heads are smooth and the area around the eyes are thinner so paints flow out of the eyes.Name:  IMG_2120.JPG

    Those look natural. Almost reptilian looking. They look awesome
    The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along

    I'm on a mission to have the largest collection of crinkle painted jigs. Currently have three clear plastic shoe boxes full and started another. Probably 30-40 lbs. of them now. Need to order more lead soon.

    Certainly good looking jigs. Went thru the rotator cuff thing in March. Rehab gal was harder on me than cuff was. LOL All is well now, or as close as it could be at 70.

    Glad the shoulder is coming along Grumpy. Rehab is always tough.

    These reptilian jig heads have beguiled you. Cast a spell over you. They are reproducing themselves via trickery. Maybe it was something manageable at first, but 40 pounds worth is no longer acceptable. I am afraid you will have to begin gifting them in order to clear the way for more.

    Time to do another video.
    Maybe they will bite this one……

    I hope to do videos again in a few weeks and I am hooked on painting them. It seems every time I make a batch and take it out of the oven I find myself saying "WOW". Then I have to paint more.
