.dsaavedra. Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 how do lipless swimbaits (for example, spro BBZ) get their action? is it a flat patch ontop of the head similar to a lipless crankbait (rat-l-trap) that gives it the action? how does one go about making a lipless swimbait? thanks.

chartreuse Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 the flat head provides a baits orientation with resistance build-up, but it alone does not cause the action. much of the vibration is caused by the same principle of a flag flying in the wind. as air/water passes by, there will be a tendency for the medium to flow past one side better than the other, thus causing a flux towards that side. the neglected side will then try to compensate for this, causing an ongoing and dynamic role reversal. some lipless baits are completely lacking of a flat head and yet they still function similar to others.

Vodkaman Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Chartreuse, excellent description. Do a google on "vortex shedding", fascinating subject, easy to understand and it tells the whole story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Depends on whether you're attracted by her laminar flow, or her votexes. Is Pergo a laminar flow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
