Custom Soft Plastics?

Featured Replies

Anyone able to duplicate a bait if I sent them one?

I have a bait I really like but it is super soft and I get about 1.5 fish on each one. I want the same bait in a more durable plastic. Something like the Berkley Power Worm material. I use it for carolina rigging so I dont need salt or scent which are what I think makes it tear so easily. Just want a bunch of them in Green Pumpkin.

I always knew that soft plastic had a little more action but I never really understood how much of a difference the soft plastic had in regards to the number of bites I get. I fished Yamamoto Senko baits side by side with various other stick worms and the only one that comes close to matching the Senko is the Yum Dinger, maybe it is the scent but even that gets outfished by the Senko and I believe it is because we really don't know how many fish bite our baits. I thing sometimes fish will suck your bait in a spit it out just as fast but real soft plastic makes the fish hold on and not spit it but instead eat it and then we feel the fish and catch it. I'm sorry for the long story but the point I'm trying to make is you may end up getting a bait that doesn't catch as many fish or quality fish by having a proven bait made with a harder plastic.

Mikey5string be careful what you wish for because one of the reasons your bait might be so successful is because it is so soft.

It isnt a senko, its basically a tailed worm called Tomahawk by Missile baits. I like the twin tails on it. I fish it carolina rigged so i am controlling a lot of the movement.

Suppose I could find a cheaper version but I hadnt see anything like it.
