North Australian FISH FINDER TM forums

Hi All,

To make up for not working at the moment due to bubs i decided i needed a new hobby. I broght some lure blanks off ebay and a cheapish airbrush kit, some createx paints and holographic tape and got creative. Here is a few i have knocked up. blanks in picture to.

Have tested them in the spa and they swim great but tjere is no fish in my spa so the next trial is to see if they actually catch fish Watch this space!

they look the goods. no reason they wont work.
looks like a good time killer for around the house as well.

Top effort!

Verrrry nice JQ..Reckon the light blue/silver will be a killer at Cahills and in the blue water.

Nice work indeed, let us know if they catch a fish

wow, love a couple of the colour skeems there.

Would you try to repaint a few of my lures for me? Pm if you would be interested and name your price.

so can i pick them up over the weekend or what

Hi there,

Very nice, and it will be really pleasant when you will start to catch some fish with your own lures.
Well done!

Have a good day,
Pecheur

Very nice, got a great finish to em

Thanks for the positive feedback fella's.. i forgot to mention that holographic tape is the hardest part to work with, trying to keep smooth with no airbubbles it drives me berko at times

Will let you all know when i catch fish on them.

Nomad i will swing some your way if you think it will improve your fishing

Will pm you CC

Lenna, try wetting th lure with a weak detergent/water wipe, helps by allowing the sticky to slide a bit and squeeze out the bubbles, as you work them out the sticky will grab on,I use this method to apply stickers, should work for you.

Hey JQ,

Any tips on what brush you got and just how cheap? I've redone some ruined classics and stuff with nail polish, they come up okay but I wouldn't mind having a crack at what you've done.

I got 10 tins of spray paint and just spray them back up once the loose a bit of colour or change tem completely
Dunno what is is nowadays but te paint on lured just doesn't last at all

Great work JQ....they look excellent!
