Rolleyes Can't See Me
I've had many requests to paint a lure with a duck hunting pattern. I thought about it for some time but never really tried. Last week Chicken asked me about painting a lure for him as a "keepsake". He axt about duck hunting. So, I started thinking about it, but, never could come up with a pattern that would incorporate duck hunting, but, still catch fish.....until, I looked at a pic of a drake mallard. Here's what I came up with.

It's a Saltyclad wrap. I got the pic off the interweb and made the wrap.

There are some neat patterns on the interweb that they call "camo". I found a lime green one last night that I'm gonna maybe try.

They have a coat of Devcon epoxy and 4 coats of Dupont Chroma clear. They don't look shiny?

No different than out of the box. That jerk is loaded with rattles and tracks very true. No doubt they'll catch trout.

Can you post a pic of that "duck blind" stuff?
