One on the left is a shad pattern for a lake in Arkansas.

One on the right is a match for a pumpkin seed pattern.

One on the bottom is a blk/blu mop jig.

Let me know what you guys think.

On the shad pattern skirt, both colors are from fishing skirts.com The color is Living Image #253 Blue Shad (2 tabs) and (4) strands of Solid Red #196.

The head was powder painted with 5 colors ( pearl, white, beige, text. silver and black, followed by blue glitter coat and then a clear coat.

I make everything from scratch, from pouring to powder painting to skirt colors.

I pretty much have custom made colors. I rarely use Pro-tec powder paint. I apply a base coat and then add colors as I go. It's not the easiest process, but the results are impressive. I will eventually get into air brushing Createx on powder paint. That is a whole different ball game. Where you use textured powder paint as a base, and then you air brush all of your other colors. I have been experimenting with all of this for about 7 years. My proto types with this process are phenomenal, but I have not yet gotten to where I want to be with those. More R&D work needs to be done.

Thank You very much for the compliment Nas.

jig reply :

Nice work cadman ! I was wondering what your take on the poison tail jig as an all around jig , meaning open water and also in cover ?Been thinking of getting that mold for a while now.

cadman reply :

Jig,

Thanks for the compliment. I like the poison tail jig. Lot of guys complain that they miss a lot of hooksets, because the hook is bent down or they have to wait a little while longer for the fish to take the bait and swim with it. I don't seem to have this problem, I always wait a little while anyway, until I see the fish swim with the bait and then set the hook. I guess to each his own. I like them. That pumkinseed color in my area just slays them in Spring time. Shad, blk/blue, black and crawdad colors work really well in summer.

jig reply :

thanks for reply cadman,keep up the great work !
