Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I bought this stuff to paint some jig heads and it's great stuff. You just heat the lead head, dunk it in the powder, shake off the excess, and watch it do its thing. The drying time is very quick. I put an eye on and cover the head with Liquid Fusion for longevity. I use an isopropyl alcohol burner as the heat source because it burns clean. I thought this might be of interest to those that like to paint. I am in no way affiliated with the Pro Tech company. I'm just a happy customer.

Nice Bruce !Do you use a nail head with pint for the eyes or use a different technique?

Where's Carl Hendrix on this subject? He does a great job painting jig heads!
