Do stripers eat carp?

Hi guys,

I was experimenting with using stencils the other day and thought this one turned out decent, even if it does look like a carp.

I'm also experimenting with the digital camera instead of trying to fit giant lures into the scanner, like I have been doing, so sorry for the crappy pic. This was the best out of about the 15 or so I took.

Sweet plug. You have a nice eye for detail and proportion. Gold is a good color for bass.

As for Stripers eating carp, I don't know, but they certainly eat crap which is lucky for us guys who can't paint like you.

Thumbs up

Very nicely done. I need to work on my paint skills...a lot.

Nice paint, job, you could even call it sea-robin, which I have seen that stripers eat.

60 % of the time, it works every time.
