I decided that since it's 25 degrees outside, I'd tinker with some baits! Went to BPS today and grabbed some pacs of Terminator Quick Skirts for spinnerbaits. Thanx to Tin for pointing them out. ;)

Took a black 5/8 popper, cut off the stock hooks and pulled off the stock skirt, exposing the peg...

Great idea, looks sharp.

Now I don't have to worry about my skirts melting when the temp gets above 90*.   ;D

looks nice, i did the exact same thing the other day with a friends hula popper. it was black and i only had the quickskirt that looks similiar to a rainbow trout...an interesting combination.

the other day i noticed my strike king buzzbait was lacking in the skirt department, so i took one of the chart./white elaztech ez skirts from the chatterbait kit i got as a gag gift and put it on the buzzbait. looks better than when i first got it  ;D

Thats a big upgrade right there.
