Scorcher214 Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Im looking to purchase some more skirt material for my first winter of spinnerbait making and I got the kit from Jann's. Along with the RR I got, I bought some silicone strips. But I was just wondering from you guys, which do you prefer? Does one move better in the water than the other? What about for jigs, RR or silicone? The only thing I dont like about RR so far is that I have to separate every single strand from the other one. Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted December 12, 2011 Super User Posted December 12, 2011 I use both. Sometimes I mix them together. I think rubber moves better on a jig but I still use a lot of silicone. To seperate the rubber make it a it longer than you need. Tie it to the bait. Take a pair of sissors and pull the rubber pretty tight. slowly cut the rubber and each strand will pop of. I'd show you a pic but photo bucket is acting up on my computer. Quote
Scorcher214 Posted December 12, 2011 Author Posted December 12, 2011 Thanks man, a lot easier than separating them one by one haha. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted December 12, 2011 Super User Posted December 12, 2011 I don't think you'll see the benefits of living rubber on a spinnerbait. Quote
