« on: 11/08/12 21:23 UTC »
Decided to try a core shot vein, with some practice and different a color vein I think it could be really nice. Here are 2 shots of the first attempt:

Thanks guys, actually Gary not one inch of that bait is hand poured, everything was injected. I will be playing around with some more advanced techniques shortly. Modified my mold last night by knocking the hook slot down roughly 1/8" to allow for a great belly pour so this will completely change the game for my vein techniques.

I will get some pics up soon with the new attempts, I never really liked the way the belly color went through to the tail tip so this should work out smoothly. Might attempt a double vein, thinking a silver/grey top then electric blue then chartreuse then the pearl belly. Stay tuned!

(At this rate I am going to have to find investors  :P :P :P)
