scottw, it's OAK, Im guessing COLLECTORS shocked: or NUTS like me the painting is SUPER, something Ill never be able to do.

Raven,
there are pluged holes on the botton, so it has to be weighted. for what there asking you would think it would have a CLEANER BOTTOM ( not being able to see the weight holes) my thought
GOOD LUCK GOOD PLUGGIN

you can paint like that, get a WASCO or other taxidermy catalogue and purchase the fish painting schedules that they offer, they even have pre cut stencils for some species, you'll notice that a lot of the jointed lures that these guys are offering are not painted as baitfish but game fish like trout because they use these schedules, this guy is very good, amazing that he can produce enough each individually airbrushed to operate but once you have the stencils and schedules I guess you can just line them up...

That's close.... This video was in the dead of winter. The guy was tossing the lure out in to the current of a local river and his wife was on the video camera. He was trying to explain/illustrate the change in the hinge mechanism design in the updated lure. It was pretty interesting.
