Here's my first run of swimmers. I had a lot of fun working on these. My dad got a new 'light' rod last fall so I wanted to make some small stuff for when we fish light tackle. I was trying to come in at 1 1/2 oz, and had a tough time doing it.

These are around 5 1/2 inches, and are right at 1 and 1/2 ounces w/ hooks. These will have 2/0 on the belly and a siwash on the tail..

A couple of Pearl, and pink over pearl.

A couple of 'hammered' blue over white,pink over pearl with scales and a yellow over pearl.

And a couple black over gold scales and black over silver scales .

Beautifu DJ ,:kewl: Can't believe they are your first attempt:) They look like they will catch big time:D Scales are great!

nice

the hammered stuff is cool isnt it?:)

Those look great! I will be trying for the first time soon, and hopefully they will look as nice as some of the ones I've been seeing on here.

Those are only your first wow.:D

Dave - very nice. So did you end up using rattle cans? Those look pretty sweet if they are.

DJ, VERY nice work, great shapes and those bottom scaled ones look pissa:cool: johnny

Thanks guys, I got a lot of good info from the board here.

Mike, its krylon for now... They came out nicer than I expected them to. Don't you love when that happens!

I love krylon, and spray bombs.

BEst first batch of plugs I have ever seen hands down- Cant wait to see batch 2 ! :D

..are getting better and better! :claps:
Those last ones remind me of "fishnets" on a certain hottie I used to know. :drool: :hihi: Ahhh good times, good times.
Sher do miss her though :bc:
Perhaps one of those plugs will cheer me up? :think: :rollem: :heybaby:

Wow great scale job, did you use an onion bag?
