swap? lol no way man, I wouldn't even sell them. They take me way too long to make. I would be willing to paint one of yours for you though, for free of course. I'm not out to make money, I just enjoy making and painting fish.

Right now the lure is just coated with a thick layer of house of kolor clear with micro flake. I was thinking of using aristicrat but i have never used it before so I don't want to ruin my plug that took me so long to make.

The reason we make baby rainbows is because out here in the west all of our lakes are stocked with trout and the big stripers and Large mouths love them little stockers. This is the same story for the big rainbows and Browns in the higher elevation lakes. This particular plug in this thread was made to mimic the baby rainbows in the high country as they have brighter coloring. Stockers are more plain in color.
