8" Pikie and 2 Eelies

After sharing a few Pikie 4 Lips with Sarge I decided to make a few using the same Pikie body shape that Sarge has perfected. Here is the 1st of several I have in process... reed green top and mouth, aluminium sides, and off white belly...

After doing well last Sunday night at Cutty with yellow eelie... I needed to make some more and try a slopehead version... here are 2 of the 4
I made this week

a few more pics of the Pikie... my goal is to catch a 40lb fish on this before the fish head south this season.

watch.. I will probably lose it to a blue the first time I swim it....

Looks great and I like the color, did you finally get an airbrush?? Do one in CCBC olive back also, big momma's like that color when the big bunka are around !! btw, I finally got an upsized Nike Jr.(7 1/2") in the water yesterday and it swims just as good as the Jr does. Now to try one at 8 1/2"! All Gary S's fault, he's got me going BIG.
