Been a couple very busy weeks getting my new ice grubs done for the up coming ice season . Between all the river rat requests that keep coming in, I was able to finish the last lot of 7, and even did one batch of jigs . These are 7/32 tungsten beads ( tungsten is getting pretty expensive these days ) but I still manage to keep my prices fisher people friendly. Very pleased how they turned out . I have lots of misfit ones on the side lines, as I only produced the ones I was happy with . Nothing wrong with seconds, just not to my standards to please the end buyer . Anyhoo This is my end results .

Hey B Looking good Whats the best way to put in an order?

Looking good Mr B

Great work Brian. Saw these on FB too.

Things of beauty Chris, as always.

Thanks Smitty "jewelers/needle files sets" is exactly what I was thinking would be the best option. I'll check out the options in the links you provided and may very well get them ordered today.

Look at the way the body has a two tone effect. It looks more natural than a solid colour. They all look great. I’d try the dead grub first.

Looking good. In regards to files there is a huge variety of jewelers/needle files sets out there that I think would fit the bill for what you do. Having used them for 35 years in the aircraft instrument repair business I can heartily attest to their usefulness. They come in 6 or 12 piece sets with a medium,. fine or xfine finishes and single or double cut faces. The best quality ones considering the fine work you do I would suggest you go with Swiss-pattern files, you'll pay lots more for them but you will never regret purchasing top quality. At the least buy a mid range set from a quality name. I don't know if you ever have to make slots in your craft but a slot file is something you may find handy at times. Again, you can go for the best with Swiss made like this for example https://eternaltools.com/products/screw-head-slotting-file I still have mine that I bought back in the 70s Here's the best files.. https://www.mcmaster.com/products/jewelers-files/needle-file-sets-9/ And then there's Amazon. https://www.amazon.ca/s?k=needle+files&adgrpid=1361198090232684&hvadid=85075300630605&hvbmt=be&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=125283&hvnetw=s&hvqmt=e&hvtargid=kwd-85076111170241%3Aloc-32&hydadcr=24906_13599843&mcid=e310450fd02337b79e75f87155717054&msclkid=6bc4632abfc61e9ac3fb0a011b7eef5b&tag=msncahydra-20&ref=pd_sl_4hs3yt4lc_e Cheers
