Anti-twist rig

I have a really good wobbler that I use when trolling in the local fjord. It has a nice unpredictable swim and does the occasional loop. The problem with the looping is that it puts a spin on the line. This can easily be avoided by putting a plate with a ball bearing swivel in front of it. I have a few commercial variants of these but I was bored yesterday so I made my own from a stainless steel plate. I guess it would serve as a simple "flasher" as well?



The masking for the paint was pretty crap.. That's something I have to practice more :)

De Beer airbrush paint

I've been painting a bit with the Createx Airbrush Colors. They are cheap and come in many premixed colors which is a big plus in my opinion. Great for starting out, but has left quite a bit to be desired. So, a while ago I ordered som De Beer WaterBase Serie 900 automotive paint.



I did a quick test with the red and the black colors and the results were excellent! Much, much better atomization than with Createx out of the bottle.

First catches on DST baits

I haven't very much in terms of wobblers, or catches to show so far. But here are three of them that are worth posting.

Two Brown Trouts 3.82kg and ~2.5 (c&r)


Atlantic Salmon 6.2kg

Hopefully there will be more to show :)

New blog

I figured I would take a stab at maintaining a blog again. Mostly as a documentation for myself of the baits I make and fish I might catch using them. Other than that I don't really have any expectations and don't figure anyone else will either :-P
