I was just messing around with a few baits,with our water so clear now I wanted a clear bait but decided to do something different ,I know you guys do it all time by dividing it in half ,did not want to do that so I cut a small piece off of old grub and put a tiny bit of super glue to mold and shot plastic in it,work ok and came out of mold easy. I think these will do well in this clear water. Did all in one shotAttachment 135296
your baits look good you can shoot them and pull the body off and shoot the second color on top make sure that you put a little bit of Pam on one half of the mold this will allow you to pull the mold apart without pulling all the baits off then you put your finger on the tail part and cold the body off put mold back together and shoot the upper you will have some nice looking baits I kind of like your combinations they are definitely natural looking on the colors.Quote:

Is this the mold you made yourself? I did not recognize the name being the same when you posted
Like crappiefarmer said,take and clamp two pieces of alumin and drill with different size bits then use Dremel to smooth out,but now I made a bit that shape to help ,I love to keep it skinnie because it to me works better on slow days than those fatter ones like BGSS ,not nocking those ,have some but never use them except sometimes to test them while wife is using this bait
It is a wise man that makes his baits situation specific . genec has the right outlook . Slim profiles are something that comes under the heading of less is more . Fish that is .
Gene's baits work. He mainly uses off white but he has a very light Lime, almost transparent, that also works well.
He keeps me supplied....:HandsClapping:HandsClapping
I seen some baits like that, called shooger boogers I believe. Where I seen them Im not for sure.
