Leigh asked:


I want to make a fishing lure out of wood, but need to know what types of paint to buy. I don’t have an airbrush. I want to paint it by hand.

    Damn. Damn. Damn.

    I can’t remember the name of the paint right off hand. My dad made a lure out of a shovel handle a few years ago and just used spray paint and tape.

    I’m thinking special paints that you use to paint model cars and airplanes would work, but I’m not sure if they’d be exactly waterproof. There is one that’s made specifically for lures, but damn it, I cannot remember what it’s called.

    Gimme a while… I’ll find it. Grand Master BasserĀ®
