southie THE BANGA

Painted up a few each of these trout candies this arvo. Im a big fan of my new rainbow trout pattern.. Might add some red speckle to the brown trout pattern though... These will be up for sale in the next few days if you are looking for some trout lures.. They come rigged with bbk hooks.

Must book a trip to tassie one day...looks like paradise for me. Nice video mate

Well got home today and after finally over a month and a half i got some packages! Not all of them but its a start The last lot are 120mm and 40g will be painting them first to use them on the Salmon! If there is anything in particular youd like to see get painted or would like me to paint let me know. Im always open to buy and paint different lures.

Cheers mate. Im glad the 1st lot of lures i sold are to fishos that actually fish and catch fish. So hopefully they come back with some good photos videos etc.... I'M hoping to get out alot more myself now that my overtime got taken from me at work. Plus winter trout fishing is alomost upon us so I'll be looking to paint up alot more trout lures... My biggest issue is finding blanks that not only work bu are going to be readily available for me to get.. Plus i don't want to step on other lure painters feet. Hence why i haven't painted any cod/callop lures... It's al

Now i got my painting up to scratch i cant wait for yellowfin season... got some killer designs im mind... Been using alot of everyday items as stencils... once i get a mic for my go pro i might makea few videos up to run through the processes i go through to paint.

Cheers mate come in around 110mm and weigh 10 grams rigged... Depth around 1-1.5m and come rigged with bbk hooks and quality split rings Perfect as a twitching jerkbait or a slow roll lure as it has a tight wobble to it... Certainty will be a snook,flathead, salmon mully killer... Sold them for 13 bucks a piece with free postage australia wide. I think i have 4 of those blanks left which is unfortunate as they dont make them anymore but will find similar. Once deliveries go back to normal ill load up on more blanks. Im still waiting for my last 500 dollar ord

Well it's Official! Got Rezbaits to put these lures up for sale on his Facebook page and they sold within an hour! Super Stoked to sell my first lot of lures! With all the practice and trial and error I am getting more confident Everyday with my Lure painting skills and makes me keen on selling a few more. I was hesitant it getting them up for sale but glad i did. All the money goes towards more fishing gear so thats a plus! Keep an eye out on the For Sale thread you might find some coming up for sale

Nice video mate.... Hopefully i can get more blanks and paint some up for ya for the season coming!

Painted these jerkbait style minmows up in my mullet pattern. I like this pattern and will be keeping it as an staple part of lures that I'll be selling every nowand then. Most lures will be sold between 8-12 bucks also dependant on wethe or not people need terminal tackle rigged to them. Atleast the bare minimum they will come with split rings as people like to put there own hooks/trebles on... I also painted these up for myself some bream crankbaits... Might get into bream lures a bit more as easy to get ahold of and people bream fish!

Hey all This is for all you lure mad fishos out there!! Or even people just getting into Soft plastics Fishing! Mate of mine has been making Soft plastics for the last few months and has been selling multiple lots not only here in SA but all over the Country. It is a hobby for him that makes a few bucks here and there. These plastics are made here in South Australia and are produced from a backyard shed. The plastic is of High quality and are a great price for a pack. There is a range of styles and colours to suit every situation and the best thing is they are made to order! Be

Well Banga baits certainly work

Was painting up some more trout lures tonight and i stuffed the paint job on one of them. So instead of throwing it away i painted over it completely with black paint. Then decided to think outside the box... Grabbed some pearl paint and well the photo speaks for itself. Well i think anyway So it is opaque black as the base. Pearl green top. With an pearl Magenta body and gold stripes... I recko this will be one colour ill paint as one i will sell

I use an locked blood knot when tying leader to hooks, swivels, clips etc... never had any dramas with it so I have kept using it...

Nice fish mate! Well done..

Currently at the moment my work has gone the other way and we are dead set flat out we have almost doubled budget for the month and I'm still pumping out orders and sending them out daily. The only way we will close is if the Goverment forces us to. Sparkies are panic buying and trying to finish jobs before they get forced to stop aswell. Bloody crazy and according to our other branches there not busy. Must be because We are in town...

Well good news. Im able to buy and get items shipped from china so have just ordered up big incase work closes down But in the meantime i still got a few blanks to paint up. Good night for a few cans and an painting session

Cheers mate. While i enjoy it I'll keep pumping them out. Biggest problem at the moment is most of my blanks come from China. And delivery times have extended out beyond a month. Im running out of lures to paint....

Cheers mate. A proper airbrush has helped immensely. Aswell as the Clear coat im using now it just adds an extra element to the lure. Ill keep at it. Can only improve really. Means by next yellowfin season i should have some pretty dope lures painted up

Cheers mate. Might have a couple to send out to you for you to try on the Tassie trout

The great thing about painting your own lures is you can create your own style and colours... Been messing around with a few different patterns and styles just perfecting my painting skills and styles... This photo doesn't do justice on how good this actually looks. This is an semi transparent Rainbow trout pattern that i will be rolling with when selling a few lures. I'll be looking at transparent redfin pattern and brown trout pattern aswell for the dams and creeks in SA. This pattern is for HB tragic he asked me to paint for awhile. Now that i finally have a cleat Im happy

Ebay.

So been off work for a week after getting 3 wisdom teeth removed. So when i was feeling up to it i decided to paint a few more baits up... Been thinking about what lures i will be painting to be selling for this season... Hopefully i can figure out a good price for lures painted and rigged with good terminal tackle... Like mentioned previously will be concentrating on Freshwater. Mainly trout and redfin. And i will also be painting up Salmon lures aswell. So stay tuned for some lures coming up for sale soon. Also if you are aft

I use an albright knot for anything from 2lb to 100lb never had any dramas with it going through the guides or strength issues.

Cheers all. Got some big plans and ideas running through my mind so we'll see how i go... Tried something different tonight.... Every Lure painter seems to sign there baits with there signature, but i have fat fingers and its hard to sign on small lures so saw another idea on Youtube and decided to give it a go.... Looks really good in my opinion. just adds that special touch... I printed on some waterslide transfer paper and then slide it onto the bait... then cleared over the top of it.... I like it as mentioned adds an special touch to a custom job.... Can only

Potentially. So many other people paint great lures for callop and cod. In saying that Callop lure blanks are readily available as they are similiar types bass fishos use in the states... plus stencils are easy to come by for them too so they make them easyto paint... So if i get some interest i might. Just dont want to be stuck with them and waste $$$
