Nice work Mark.

Has anyone invited the NCKA guys? It would probably be the neighborly thing to do after their GS6 thread.
Insayn, Yaksurf, PNW, Rol, Br0wnthund3r and I extended verbal invites to as many of the guys we met at GS6. But a formal invite should be posted on NCKA.

The NCKA guys are aware of and thankful for being invited.  So far, there are just 3 of us confirmed but a few more may join.

It'll be nice seeing you again Zee.  Maybe we'll spend a day hunting the BIG Sturgeon up there.  Are you available to "guide" us?  0:)
Likewise! I'll most likely burn all my free time but depending how long you stay there's lots of fishing options!

Just poured my first pearl white 6 1/4" swimbaits for ORC.  More white and some rootbeer flake coming soon.

  Fish N Brew,
  Those look deadly.........that oughta catch em.
   Well done sir.
Life is short---live it tall.

Be kinder than necessary--- everyone is fighting some kind of battle.

Sailors may be struck down at any time, in calm or in storm, but the sea does not do it for hate or spite.
She has no wrath to vent. Nor does she have a hand in kindness to extend.
She is merely there, immense, powerful, and indifferent

Lurecraft.com.  There's no need to buy a starter kit   You will get things you don't need.  I have one purchased mold and one that I made by making a polymer clay mold of a swimbait and pouring mold rubber around it.  There are some pretty good videos available that show how to and what is really needed.  I heat with a microwave oven in my garage and always wear a respirator.  The fumes can be nasty but creating your own baits can be a great activity.  I use lots of different colors and layers with glitter and sometimes hollow cavities for attractants to be injected.  I buy the Alumisol plastic by the gallon and that makes a lot of baits.  Each bait is about 1 oz. of material.  PM me if you want more info.
