Really nicely done Frank that is a great carving. I wouldnt use that on Pike or Muskey have you seen what they can do to a good lure? BTW you are much too quiet my friend havent heard from you in ages nice to see you back on the board.

Boy that's pretty. Are you seriously going to feed that to a fish?

Frank!!! I'm 100% with Thor!!! Are you really going to let some slimy fish put that beautiful piece of artwork in it's mouth ... No Way, Good Sir! That lure should be wall mounted for display, it's beautiful.

Frank, that is so beautiful! I love the colors and I am SO not going to show your picture of it to the hubby! I know he'd lay a guilt trip on me to make him one (and one more and one more and.....!) because they are small and I could 'whip' them up in my free time. He loves fishing lures and displays them on a stone wall in his 'hunting room'.

Hmmmmm, I just got a great idea, I'll make him one for his Christmas stocking. Now that would surprise him! Thanks for sharing your beautiful lure and for the great Christmas present idea! Deborah
