North Ga Hillbilly Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 It's real hard finding any XL sized rat baits for sale other than those north of $200, so I got to work making my own. Yes, this is obviously based on the only 6"+ rat bait that I know of, and no I didnt make this to sell, but for personal use only... *looks around for cease and desist order* It took about 3 hours or so other than a little testing and then waiting for everything to dry. Just thought Id share and I hope other folks will give it a go. Also managed to solo shoot a video of it in action. Had a three and a 4 pull off of the laid down tree to follow it. The even came up and made a swipe at it. [media=] NGaHB 3 Quote

Super User Master Bait'r Posted September 23, 2013 Super User Posted September 23, 2013 He was getting married around the time he went AWOL. Strange... No, that doesn't sound strange to me at all In any case, I hope you friend shows up- sounds like maybe he needs his old fishing buddies to get him back into the swing of things! 1 Quote
