  9. has anyone one tried to use muskrat fur for a mouse/rat bait....i was thinking of remaking a older creek chub pikie into a rat by cutting the bill down flat and epoxying some muskrat fur on to it .replacing the hooks...just wondered if the fur would stay on the bait and if it made casting a little harder .because of the drag..? my bait is a older well used wooden pikie no real value..its takin its share of pike...
