Custom Painted Sebile Magic Swimmers anyone?

Post by Fish-N-Fool » Sun Aug 14, 2011 3:45 pm

I found a source of unpainted Sebile Magic Swimmers so I got one and I painted up in a perch pattern. Here is how it turned out.This is the 240 mm or 9+in. size I can also get this bait in the 190 mm, 165 mm or 120 mm size.

I liked it so much I'm thinking of getting a bunch more to do the same way to resell. The 9" one like this would go for about $30 and the 165 mm or 6 3/4'' would go for about $15. Any of you think they would sell? Any of you want to order one. Just trying to see if there is a market out there for this type of bait with a custom paint job.

I used mine this last weekend in the Newman Lake Chap. 60 Musky Tourney and although I didn't get any Muskies that day, I did catch a really nice 20" L.M. Bass on it. So I know it works at least. This bait is the slow sinking model and they have a great swimming action. You can fish it as a wake bait with a high rod tip, down to about 4 Ft if you hold the rod tip under water. My next ones I plan to use bigger hooks on as I used what I had for this one.

I do my own custom painting, but I sure could use a source for the unpainted magic swimers. I know Cabelas has a knock off that looks just like them, so are these actually Sebile?

Now, can you get a source for unpainted S-Wavers as well?:-"

Here is my idea of perch colored S-Wavers.

Too much water, so many fish, too little time.
