got bored and tried making some fins from silicone. i made a mold and sandwiched the silicone between the 2 halves. came out pretty good. real flexible and the tail is removable. the others are anchored into the bait.will have to see how durable they are.

slow sinking, 9", 5.1 oz.

    The new fins look awesome. The realism of your baits is amazing. 8-)

    BTW do you mold your baits?

    all hand carved.

    i tried molding but the resin baits didn't have the same action as the pvc material. going to order some Featherlite resin ( it floats, but not sure how hard it is.) from Smoothon and give that a try.
