These are a few lures I have been working on for my barra fishing trip coming up. I am pretty happy with how they turned out but I still need more practice on the painting side of things. Tried a few nail art stencils this time as well as one I made. Compared to the paint jobs you guys turn out they are fairly crappy but I am only making them for my own use and to keep myself busy. Two things I am banking on are:
1. They swim better than they look
2. Fish are not art critics

Cheers Chris

Well this one worked and it didn’t even fall to bits my bigger ones were made for some trolling so didn’t get a run this trip due to not getting to the deeper parts I had in mind. There is always next time though
Cheers Chris
