*SEE YOUR CUSTOM PATTERN IN PRODUCTION-Contest* 2024


fishing user avatarLow_Budget_Hooker reply : 

I'm ready for the patterns on my working girl wake baits and what would be better if I turned to the custom talent we have right here on the board?

I am getting 8 blank baits to send to 8 custom painters. I will choose where they go by the pics posted below, 2 per specie

I will pay all postage

If we choose to use your pattern, you'll get a set of the 4 winning patterns. Your name will also be featured on the packaging. "Custom Pattern by:"

If you think you have the best pattern of the species below, POST A PIC

Largemouth Bass

Yellow Perch

Rainbow Trout

Pickerel

That trout pattern that Buzzcatcher did caught me a 3+ lb smallie.


fishing user avatarTexas10Man reply : 

Looks like buzzcatcher turned sexy shad into rainbow trout. That is an awesome color.


fishing user avatarptomacbass reply : 

I observe Blueback Herring a lot, because where I fish, during april, if you fish for bass with a crankbait , you will catch Bluebacks. I can't paint but I can think up some good blueback patterns.  If you need Blueback patterns that is.

Here's you one:

LBH, glad I don't have to choose or judge.

All of these guys have some of the best air-brush talent I have ever seen...

Very impressive.....

Good Luck & Tight Lines To All!!!

Looking good guys!

anyone willing to tackle the Pickerel???  :)


fishing user avatarfishingdanderson reply : 

oh yeah I meant to ask.  By pickerel do you mean chain pickerel or walleye like the Canadiens like to say?

I would have to agree, those are top notch.


fishing user avatartritz18 reply : 

This is one of the neatest threads yet, so cool to see what you guys can paint and design. They are all very good


fishing user avatarBassChaser57 reply : 

Hey Russ,

Many of these are awesome but what about making an amature class for guys like me. Of course we would not be competing against the pros for the prize but it might be interesting.


fishing user avatar.dsaavedra. reply : 

new baby bass:

fishing user avatarFishwhittler reply : 

Is this contest over? There haven't been any updates on contest status for awhile and it seems to have dropped from the public eye. :-?

Here's a bump.
