One other thing if your lead is an alloy with alot of tin or other bi product it will usually make pouring more difficult. If you do have lead like this(wheel weights) find some pure lead and mix it in to help dilute the alloy more.

cool Muddy, gotcha new pewter. Now you can surf the web even faster and reply with more entertaining posts. Congrats on the computer and you better be nice to that Gfriend. Atleast for awhile.

Ok, this might not be the right place to ask but I think the question/topic could go in any of the three topics. I have some questions about salt in lure and the effect on bass. I know in a senko style bait salt is mostly used as weight to get it to sink at a perticular speed. The problem is when trying to make a certain color of bait salt effects the color especially in translucent colors. It turns opaque. That was the background to asking this question. Does salt actually work, and make the fish hold on longer or do you guys think scent would be good enough with a soft bait. I've fished baits with salt and without and I'm starting to wonder if its really a necessity except on baits that need to sink.I've been fishing finesse worms with no salt on ds and shakey rigs that work great. Like I said no salt and the colors are awsome. Is there any scientific proof that salt does work and makes the fish hold on longer?

Agreed Muddy, it cant get here fast enough. I have alot of testing to do on stuff I have made, let alone just wanting to work outside on the house. This bitter cold is killing me. I'm moving south. well I wish I was

For the most part there isnt a go to for me it just doesnt come untied. The main one I throw 99% of the time is a 1/2oz chart/wht with a #4 and #4.5 blade on it. Color can vary in the blades between silver or chart/white.

I got one from a Mets fan in 2006 that I really like. ;)the bait runs true, catches fish, and has great action. I'm going to be adding a few more to my arsenal soon.

I agree with harshman, also pour them with the pin not a weedgaurd. the pin will work alot better and the overall look of the jig is better when the gaurd is epoxied in. Makes it easier to paint too. Make sure your pouring straight into the mold not running lead down the side of it. The mold does have to be warm it seems like.

Yep sure have, Del is a great guy. I have a few of his molds, senko, frog, and a beaver molds. Soon to more. I'm looking at the ds worms and a couple others. Need $ though. They have great accessories like coloring and glitter too. I'm satisfied with what I have bought from him so far.

Fatfishfarmer on ebay should have one less then 200 possibly BTW thats what I would get for that price range.

Same here RW, except add football to it. 24 and the Unit, rock. Tomorrow is a new episode of the Unit. And obviously tonight is 2 hrs of 24.

Just busting everyone, please don't take offense, I could really give a hoot but will always root for my hometeam. Nothing annoys me more than a guy driving around Boston with a yankees sticker on his car (unless he is originally from NY). Like I said, who wins is irrelevant but loyalty says somthing. You just like the opertunity to bash me. LOL. Like 5BL said !@#$%^&*&^% PATRIOTS !!! Yeah I hope no one bet off my post. unless the bet on all 4. I ran 50%. Not good. I really wanted the chargers to win too. I'm not a Pats fan but do have to give Brady credit. He has more experience in Playoffs especially with a 12-1 record. I wanted to see LT in the superbowl. he is one of the best in the league. Maybe next year. Just think if that guy at the end wouldnt had fumbled the interception. It would have been a completely different game. > I didnt think that the Seahawks would have put up that much trouble for the bears either. There towards the end I thought the Seahawks were going to win. Cant wait to see what happens this weekend. I'll be couch tatering again. ;D Oh btw Indy and payton better bring their game and win. I wont know what I will do if I see the Pats in the superbowl again. Sheesh. ;D GO COLTS

great lure. Works better for me in cold water with a suspending one. I probably have about 20 of them.

when you post a response there is a section in tan right below the area to post that says Attach. Click the browse button and select your file. This will post it up. I've always used a host site like photo bucket.com. Then you use the URL and click the insert image in your Add YaBBC tags: section and insert the url. It makes it quick if you use the CTL C to cut and CTR V to paste the url.

Ok, someone please throw me a clue. Do you have a link for this article?

Thanks guys 28 getting real close to the big 30.

Its my birthday, Whooo hooo. Gettin some cake tonight. Here is a picture of me now since I'm so old

Will do, Whittler and I will work out the details when he returns next week. It might take us all week but I want to have everything in order before I make the ok lets do this post.

havent been skunked this year. (although I havent been fishing) If I remember correctly there was 3 times last year 1 time crappy and cold in february 2 time I broke my trolling motor and just floated around made due with what I had 3. Couldnt buy a fish. post front clear bluebird skies I can usually muster up atleast one fish. My stubborness helps me in that.

Can we put this in one of the all time great posts. I havent ever seen such a post that made me laugh so hard.

I use a 7'1" xheavy with 30lb braid. The spro bronzeeye casts like a rattletrap. The thing just zings out there. I can cast it so far if I get a bite I cant get a good hookset.

IMO its 2 different styles of fishing. The hollow frog (spro) is a stop and go through anything. You can even get the frog to jump over hurdles. The horney toad is basically a soft bait that works somewhat like a buzzbait. if it sits still it will sink. Works best with the slowest retrieve keeping the bait on top.

I would use a frog first off. other options would a tube, creature, senko, jig. Also find the weedline edge. Typically this is one of the best spots to fish.

Those look really nice. Great work. I really like seeing everyones creations.
