I've been working on this bait off and on for over a month. I plan to try it out on Saturday. I had to build the mold and figure out how to attach the wires while keeping the lead head a workable size.
-
That's going to be a fish catcher, especially if you fish current.
-
I don't have any current to fish Jack. I'm thinking maybe swim it across points or try hopping it down ledges until it gets hung up and lost.
-
Picasso has something kinda similar, but it only has two blades. I like yours better.
-
Gonna call that an "M"-rig? (yes)
-
I really like it!! Jack is right. It's a fish catcher for sure. :nod:
-
Well I will have to give you an update after Saturday's trip.
I still have to experiment with the head weight. It is probably close to an ounce but I have to have enough to cover the wire joints.
-
1 oz. is hefty, but that'll give you what you need to fish deeper water or use it in windy conditions!
And yes, be sure to let us know how it works out :thumbup:
-
I fished it quite a bit but had no bites. I was surprised that even in the rocks it only got hung up 2 times and was fairly easy to get free. So I guess I'll make some more.

That's good news, Jig Man!

I sent a couple of the out today with one of my high school bait makers and his dad. I hope to get a report tonight.

That's cool. I'm excited to hear some feedback on them too!

They didn't do any good so no report. I wish I had had it today. I caught 11 bass today with 2 really nice smallies over 3#. It would have been a good time to try out the triple spin.

How come you didn't have it with you today??
-
Cause they did not bring them back. They still have them. (angryman)

That stinks. Did they clearly understand that they were supposed to bring them back after using them??
