    Some exceptional paint work there Patrick, beautiful colors. To the guys who have not tried BigM's baits I will tell you, although they look great painted they will outfish most baits with just their sealcoat.

    Thanks Marty!!

    I added a touch of blue highlite across the shoulders of the last couple of threadfin shads. Our Tenn Tom Waterway has both Threadfins and Gizzard Shad in it. The last shad I snagged, I looked it over real good and noticed the blue highlites on the shoulders of the shad. Just thought I would give it a try to see how they do. Had a great time painting them up!! Thanks again bud!!

    Whittler, you are definately right, They have some awesome action to them!!
