Looks like you got it to me. Those are sharp. Did you cure 'em?
Bring em back down to the Abita area, got a few ponds where you can get you a 3 lber. AFTER I get mine.

When I cured them.... they drooped a little..... I don't think the fish will mind.... but it irks me to hell and back!! wasn't all of them, but a few for sure.... Don't think that 3 pounder in my near future cares if the jig has a little pimple on its nose.... lol

They don't look droopy to me at all. Look perfect in every way
Extreeeeemely slow when cleaning em. And prefer them to still be floppin'. Leave a lasting iimpression. I leave my initials on every cheek bf they are cast out.....
My neighbor said it's better for the compost bin.

No matter how good you are you're going to have some come out with a nipple on them. Are you dipping in a jar or using a fluid bed???

It's Pro-tec powder paint.... and I was using a fluid bed..... but.... I dipped most of them twice.... maybe only once next time..... or lower heat for longer on the curing. ..... I did 350 deg. for 20 mins.
