Got mine today! Now if I can find the time to use 'em. Thanks everyone
-
Biggest I've seen is a size 8 (~3 1/2") from Lake Land. a 5' is a huge spinner blade.
-
Mine are going out in the morning, my friend caught a 6# bass on it yesterday. I hope they do the same for all of you.
-
Does anyone else use these in size 3/0? I'm looking at placing a special order from the company in SeaGuard RED. PM me if you might be interested.
-
I look forward to hearing what you think. It's a little expensive, but its the only crab oil I've seen. Did you get the oil or powder?
-
Has anyone used this product? (Shredder Crab Oil)
-
I'll be sending mine out the end of the week as well. I can't wait to see what everyone else is doing.
-
I just experiemented with dipping them with the spike-it and have noticed it chips off real easy anywhere contact is made. Also, soft plastics dissolve it. Back to the drawing board....
-
I'd like to join in if there's still room.

I saw the other past on this but, does anyone have plans/instructions to make their own Fluid bed for powder paint? I haven't seen one up close, but they just look like a chamber to allow air through the bottom of the paint. Seems like you could just rig up an air chamber and create your own size one. I was thinking that a coffee filter may even work as the membrane for air to pass through. I'm just curious if anyone has tried this.

If you're making larger jigs or weights, a free source is tire shops alot of times they will give you old wheel weights in exchange for a few weights or jigs. The bad thing is the lead is hard and makes a smokey mess. I started using lead from a metal recycling center. just look in the phone book under Scrap metals or Junk dealers and call around until you find someone who has what you want. I also think Stamina sells 1# ingots via mail order.

That's funny cause the stuff I sent 1st class got there in 3 days and the priority mail took 15. I sent some packs of lures monday to south Florida and they were there X-mas Eve, but the priority mail I sent last week to TX still isn't.
-
I had this problem shipping earlier this month. Priority mail Florida to Texas took 15 days and 6-7 days to S.C. They arrived just about the time I was going to re-ship.

Personally, I would lean towards 6 flies per clam shell if those are the only choices (4,6,12) Those things (clam shells) are expensive. I would think you could go with 25 for the beads etc as plastic bags are only a few pennies each and I like to break up small parts when using them. ( If my kids get in a bag of 25 instead of 100 I'm much happier) just my 2 cents good luck!
-
This may be late, but the day after i set up my site same thing happpened. The scam is they always ask for high end reels too. Be careful. or These are a few I still had in the in-box.
-
Thanks, I checked out the link, Does anyone make crab scent?
-
Where do you get the Pro-cure? Also, who has the best supplies ( I use both retailers and wholesale suppliers) Soft plastics is going to be for personal use, I just love it when someone asks where they can buy something I'm using and I can say "Oh, I made It"
-
Sounds like a great idea to me, but then I'm trying to make chartreuse live shrimp BTW: couldn't resist, that's what I call a "betta" test Bum, I sent you a pm.
-
I was thinking that might be a problem, that's why I was wondering about using the Glory-hole dry chum or Purina Fish Chow. Fish Chow is a popular chum in saltwater here, I was thinking it might hold up with the heat. I'll be getting a few basic supplies soon and will post back how it works out. I'm trying to get a better version of the Exudes. Bum, What about creating a pocket in the center and filling it with an attractant? Kindda like the pocket for a weight on the DOA shrimp.
-
LOL I keep eyeing my son's fish tank
-
What about freeze dried shrimp? Pet stores have krill that's freeze dried. I'm not really worryed about mass producing......... well maybe
-
Yea, I was joking, but that's exactly what I'm working on. Be happy to share notes with you, we'll have to see what we can come up with. I know I'll be able to figue something out, fish change colors based on their enviroment all the time (just need to create a chartreuse one ) I checked you site, nice. May have some questions for you since I'm saltwater & you're fresh.
-
Dang, I guess I'll need to kick my experiements into high gear then.
-
Okay, if you read my first post you have already figued out I may be a little off..... Has anyone tried mixing something like Glory-hole dry chum or Purina Fish Chow in with their soft plastics? I fish mostly saltwater and would like to make grubs/shrimp that leave a excellent scent trail. Thanks
-
LOL, Well......... I got the idea from I think Cabela's they had some dyed nightcrawlers. It got me to thinking, why not make a dye that you could color dead or alive baits in. That's when I tried food coloring but had to really dump a ton in but does work on dead bait okay but is limited in choices I've been looking for something to color shrimp/ minnows and trolling baits really bright colors. I'll let you know how the rit dye does with both.
