OK, did some lipless cranks this weekend.
Which one do you guys prefer.
1. Emerald green backgound, then a little bit of silver and then the dark green.
2. White background, then emerald green then dark green.
3. Black background then silver, then emerald green and then dark green. I then did some weathering in between the gill plates and scales (something I learned while building model aircraft)
4. Black background, then silver, then emerald and lastly the dark green.
OK, I have 2-3 bags of plastics which are very dry. Still useable but dry. What can I use to re lubricate them. I have heard that some guys use spray n cook.
Yes the tube goes through the weight. I drilled the hole to the correct size. Another thing one can use is lollipop handles. They make them from a thin thick plastic tube these days.
I think one can make them without the weight and just slide the weight on afterwards but I like the all in one hub.
OK, want to go try punch skirts with plastics this weekend. Problem is that you don't get skirt hubs here by us so I had to diy.
Got some skirts, plastic tube(part of some old carp gear I had), small o ring and a bullet weight.
If you melt the ends of the plastic tube they curl up making a nice mushroom shaped end. Cut to size and add the o ring at the bottom as extra security. And here are the results.
And then I made some more.
I will be giving them a try this weekend.
I bought a couple of jigs some time ago and want to start using them. I had a couple of casts with them but they feel way too bushy for me. I am no pro but they do seem to look and feel very bulky. I know that it is also up the angler and each to his own. When I compare these to any other jig at our local shops they all seem to have almost half less strans. I think I need to thin them a bit. What do you guys think.
