I used Toad's feather idea and scaled it down to some 2" grubs. I shot these clear with a violet hi-lite. (Has a violet sheen in the sun) These look pretty cool with all the different feathers that can be used. After doing these a couple other ideas have popped in my head.:idea: I hope i can get some pics of them up this weekend.

Hayseus, y'all are getting out the box.
I knew you'd stretch it further.

Those look like attention getters.
I like em. It's a balance for me. Told myself id only fish feathers for a while, but have a love for plastic. But want feather fish.......
Can you incorporate an inline spinner for Pistol and trebles out the sides, staggered bw plastic n feathers, for me (2 on each side and 2 below)?
Ty and fish bless.

That lil girl has got u delirious n thinking oddly.

Thank you, June.

Hope mom is getting some rest.

Great work Ronny. Hope you can incorporate your Barbie Pink in the equation and get you some fishing done.

Sissy boy.

Man-o-man... those do look xcellent! The colors really pop with the clear plastic and the feather vein down the center of the pinks is killer looking.

Once again - i am with doc and would 'modify' your brand new product. :blush: Would look good on the stinger style plastics to mimic a may/damsel fly or a hellgie with just the grub body.

Amazing work. :cool:

Ron be careful of glitter . If you use to big of a size it can push the feather into a wade .

Wow, again. Just wow Rondon. Me too think a version without the tail would slay bug eaters. And a version with the feathers biased to the bottom of the grub body would be a shrimp imitator to die for!!!!! Perfect way to portray their legs all scurrying under their segmented body. Did I say wow.
