Thank yall for all the complements. Gives me more motivation to try and make "better" baits! I use that term loosely here.

For those wanting to try this, keep in mind that what you put in the bait will have to withstand heat up to the low to mid 300 degrees. Also keep in mind that a hook will have to pierce it easily. The orientation of the foil also plays a factor in it also. Luretape is too thick and hard for this.
