  1. question guys. whats the best primer for your foamies. anybody use a lacquer base. im considering of getting an aluminum mold built for bodies.. i plan on 16lb
  2. fat fingers we mostly troll but casting is very good in spots. as for baits. we troll cranks that run shallow in spring and summer.. as for casting larger spinner baits and jerkbaits on the far east end of lsc and lower detroit river. theres many 50 inchers to be caught.
  3. i go to the dollar store and buy plastic shooter cups. they have increments to measure. 40 cups for a buck. ya cant go wrong
  4. empty cooler nice baits. do you get to st clair
  5. i fish in canadian waters. im based in windsor. belle river is the centre of l.s.c. the thames is good for fall muskys, into the lake in the summer. we fish walleyes in the spring run jigging, summer drift tubes for bass and troll for muskies, my favorite. average year on skies is in the 200 range. border crossings are easy, higher u.s. dollar value and real beer
  6. guys its a great smallie lake also.. fatfingers its worth the trip if you need help l have many friends from ohio that come up
  7. fatfingers ya gotta come up to the soth shore of st clair. its a good testing ground for muskies
  8. nice jon guy. theres several versions. yours looks good.. i do ine differently no gereen on the back. your creme belly color is dead on.
  9. post a picture of the baits that cracked. it will be easier to determine, wood or plastic also.
  10. im in windsor ontario. the st clair currents gave the clue up. im a toothy critter fisherman.
  11. you have to be fishing the st. clair river. is that a good guess
  12. plastic baits can be cleares with different clears. devcon, e tex, circa. lacquerclear, even clear acrylic works well. it depends on the paints you use underneath
  13. lapala has a great talent . i also miss his post. like many others a very good contributor
  14. wont happen here. they would freeze to death.
  15. . the only thing with lexan is it will become a little more briitle with freezing water such as 32 -33 degrees fareinheight. other wise its reall awesome stuff

    wood filler

    just 5 minute epoxy for me brett. im sure theres some guys here that know a few triks
  17. if you are painting plastic baits i use epoxy primer from basf. then art work, final coat is automotive clear as dupont 2500 plus, never had a walleye punture a bait though
  18. really a treat to see. i bet hes hooked now. plus a fishing buddy for life
  19. dam JED thats neat. i thought it was a muskrat at first. good action
  20. hi wantsome im a southern neighbor on the can side. i fish the toothy one on st clair. i love the bass too. cause they are feed for muskies. actually st clair is awsome in my opinion
  21. much depends where you locate the pull screw besides lip. inserting belly weight helps on some design as flat sided baits. i assume your trolling speeds are at 3.5-5mph
  22. hey brett have you thought of stainless tig wire. you can get it the thickness you need locally free if you know a welder to try it
  23. you sat crothcety at 49 add a few years in my case. its hard to be civil in todays world. i never knew i knew so little about so much. by the way your flat sided baits are awesome
  24. aagh god let me know when brett i need a week to clean up the shop.. as for the fish there waiting. any species and lots of them. your baits would getem here
