Special Effects on Custom Baits
Special Effects are styles that are an addition to the standard base pattern. Some special effects are free, by request. Others there is an up-charge due to additional time and material needed to achieve the effect.
To add special effects to your new bait:
- Choose the effect from the product page drop down menu.
- Or, add an effect for each bait:
