Another great looking creation Jim.

Thanks, Dennis, I enjoy experimenting at the bench and it’s always nice when an experiment turns out to an effective producer.
A very interesting pattern.

I like the paint job. Did you make the shank that goes through the body?
My compliments on a nice build. I bet smallmouth bass would gobble it up!
Thank you for the kinds words. Yes, I use a wire bender to make the shank that goes through the body. I painted the Balsa body with white India ink, then gave the top part a coat of Irridescent green India ink and touched it up with makers. That’s actually the most fun part of making these Balsa Bugs. They are fun to make and experiement with and it’s always nice to catch fish on your own creations.
