Some True Custom Baits Painted

Post by Big Bass Man » Thu Aug 18, 2011 11:48 am

Here are a few custom baits that I had the chance to paint. Marty Burns makes some of the finest balsa baits that I have thrown. Here is some square bills, It has a really hard thump and gets down to about 5ft.

Wow! I can't imagine a bass not immediately inhaling those Threadfin Shad baits in the first pics.
