Title: white crappie and pumpkinseed
Post by: bassfan586 on September 18, 2011, 04:34:39 PM
some changes i made to some patterns I have painted before.  Both have worked pretty well on smallies.

Very nice!  Are those the 1.5s or 2.5s?  How are they running?

both.  they run very well.  quality is another story.  The first run of 1.5 square bills I purchased were pretty bad.  The hlaves were not lining up well and the eyes were oblong.  Oh well live and learn.  I have been purchasing from a guy in kentucky and his blanks are the best I have seen.  Very clear and clean lines.

Do you get those blanks online?  If so what website? Ive bought from a few different places bustinbassbaits.com has some pretty good blanks.  Ive had 1 bill break off of all of them ive used but ive had the real lucky crafts do that as well.
