Siebert Outdoors Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 that is awsome. How'd you make the skirt? Quote
WCCT Posted January 9, 2007 Author Posted January 9, 2007 I do not make the skirts. They are made by Getbitlures.com. Skirts need to be injected due to their shape. They have awesome action. Quote

basspro48 Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Wow man that is one sweet lookin bait. Quote
SteveKickinBass Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 Awesome bait. I've never tried a Fat Ika yet, or anything like what you made, so how do you rig it? Thanks Quote
WCCT Posted January 24, 2007 Author Posted January 24, 2007 The most popular way to rig this bait is skirt up with a 4/0 EWG hook. In other words, insert the hook through the top of the bait with the skirt on it and rig it texas style. Fish it with no weght, as the bait itself ways quite a bit. You can basically fish it like a senko, just cast it out and let it sink on slack line. The bait will glide away from you so the slack line is good to have so the bait can fall freely. Once it hits bottom, I like to give it a little snap up and let it fall again. Work it back to the boat this way and you can kill the fish on these. Quote
