    fin stencil

    Where can I find a stencil for painting a fin on my custom baits? Any information would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.

    painter's tape. Cut a piece about 4 inches, fold it in half and stick the adhesive side's together. This will give you one for each side. Draw your fin and cut out with xacto knife. Unfold and slice down the middle. Now you have a stencil for both side's of the bait. Very quick and simple. Or if you want a permanent one, use transparency sheet's and cut it out of that. I like the tape because I don't need to hold it to spray.

    Cheaper to keep a kid in tourney fishing than paying attorneys to keep them out of jail !!
