I disagree that soft plastics are cheaper than hard baits. Not sure about everyone else but I rarely lose any hardbaits? On a good bite I can go through $20+ in flick shake worms in a day. Allen

Columbia Coatings is where I get mine since the Protech stuff is way overpriced. Allen

You can buy the heads at Lurepartsonline if you want to make your own. Allen

If they still work as intended I will use them. Otherwise they are thrown on the deck to be reused as something else or melted down for jig trailers. I have way too many soft plastics to be screwing around trying to save a single bait. Allen

Accent fishing makes a nice one. Allen

One of my best presentations for clear water. Cola is my favorite color with watermelon pepper coming in second. Heads are 1/8 or 3/32 which I started making my own. Allen

Around here we have a saying that any color buzzbait works as long as its white. Most of mine are white and black with a couple misc ones thrown into the mix. Allen

Those should work, I like the color. Allen

The thing about these jigs is that they use finesse cut silicone. Here are some 3/16oz finesse jigs I made. Allen

It would look better with eyes on that bait. ? Allen

Thanks for the info. Allen

You have shamed me into getting the pictures. I will start posting in the sales forum in a couple of minutes. Allen

Search came up empty but I know this was discussed before. Who here has made baits using tin and or bismuth? I have someone that asked me about making some heads using it. All I know about them is they both have a lower melting point than lead. Thanks in advance. Allen

Rod must shake your hands like crazy with this one. Allen

So far I have found over 100 premade skirts, about the same in blades, and like 25 heads. I have been busy with work and family stuff. Allen

Years ago it was a 4.5" Sluggo in Alewife. Allen

Such a small blade I doubt that it gets enough water turbulence to spin? Put it closer to the rear blade or use a larger one is my suggestion. Normally I use a blade that's 1/2 or 1 size smaller to keep the harmony of the blades. Allen

Depends on the bait? Wood you want to seal the bait, paint it, and then clearcoat it last. Allen

I tried bass like 25 years ago and did not care for it? The DNR stopped me one day and checked my livewell to see if I had any fish. I told hit no as I like to just catch them. He then asked if I ate fish which I replied Haddock and that I would keep any that I caught in the Upper Potomac River. He laughed and said he gave me permission to keep any and all haddock that I caught. Allen

Where I fish jigs I would lose them every cast without a weedguard. What helps my the most is watching the line and weighing the jig as the biggest fish you rarely feel the strike. Allen

Chatterbait but I know it will work eventually. Allen

No, I have a stash of them but could use some more in certain colors. Allen

LC 1.5 in BE Gill Allen

The most unique one I have made. Allen

Senko, I know they work but if this was the only lure I could use I would take up another hobby. Allen
