  1. I do this, and never have a problem. There's something in the Rustoleum Self Etching Primer that, as it says, etches the surface so my Createx paints bind really well.
  2. I'm pretty sure they would work, but they are larger than diagonal cutters, so they may be more awkward/clunky to use. Google tile nippers, and you'll see lots of choices.
  3. Just a dumb question from someone who fishes jig a lot, but doesn't pour them. With all the great hooks already on the market, is that Zo hook enough better to bother altering a jig mold to make it work?
  4. In the past I made a series of weedless hard frogs using small disc magnets. I painted them with Createx water based paints, and top coated them with Solarez UV resin. I found I had to top coat them to keep them from rusting. I got the magnets here: https://www.apexmagnets.com/?utm_source=remarkety&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=October_Promo_1_2022&utm_content=&_rmId=2nv693l2wgfYoe225DPVInron1r1P3cBxGKENDKG
  5. You can grind the face of diagonal cutters flush to the jaw edge, so they are flush cutters.
  6. Al, I'm just guessing, based on how holes in chatterbait blades let me fish them faster without having them rise up. It makes sense to me, anyway. Less surface equals less resistance.
  7. Cooch used to use a hole punch to put holes in his jig trailers, back in the day. He said it made a difference. I think it might speed the rate of fall.

    That's a really clever idea. Please let us know when you get bit.
  10. I use the High Performance HP-C Plus It's an older model.
  11. I've used Iwata for 20+ years. They work, and they're easy to use and to clean.
  12. They look good. How do they swim? Do they have a rattle?
  13. Do you have to wear gloves when you handle the "meat glue"?
  14. You might try adding another bead or two in front of the body, to be sure your blade has plenty of room to spin without hitting the body.
  15. The weight transfer 2.5 square bills are the ticket in the windy Delta. I hope you find some good ones.
  16. That's a great video! Thanks for sharing.
  17. Will you carry the weight transfer squarebills?
  18. I think it's because they read Bassmaster Mag. Hahaha Good luck when you do get on the water.
  19. For years I fished the Fat Ika for the same reason. Berkley said the most hit bait was a cylinder, which is like a craw without claws.
