RiverMan Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Fellow builders, I didn't build this one guys but I did design it. The swimbait is made from injected plastic and is nine inches in length. The video isn't the best because the pool we were using is poorly lit but you can see the action of the lure pretty well. Hope you like it. Jed V. http://youtube.com/user/BikiniBaitCompany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiverMan Posted January 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 It sinks Mark and can be counted down to whatever depth you wish to fish it. Jed V. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Jed, How does the "scallop" of the bait behind the last hook hanger affect the bait? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captsully18 Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Jed, Really nice design. I like the action in the water. Good job man. What is the fall rate of the bait? How much does it weigh? David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrydabassman Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Awesome bait for sure. Great action sure to catch lots a fish. I want some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatfingers Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 I like it! Can you twitch it and fish it with 1 to 3 foot sweeps of the rod? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverMan Posted January 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Not sure what you mean by the Scallop but I will tell you that although the hook rides right near the tail it doesn't seem to affect action in the least. Weight? About 3.5 ounces (98 grams). Fatfingers, yes you can fish it like a jerkbait and I should have shown this better on the video. The video isn't the greatest and I hope to do another once the weather changes and I can film outside. Jed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Jed, I meant the relieved area immediately behind the rear hook. As soon as you mentioned tail action, I figured out it must be relieved to give the back hook more room to swing. Beautiful lures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
