Mags Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Do any of you guys make a bait like this? I've seen some similar, but more like a minnow and not a sunfish. I am looking for a sunfish shape to drop shot under docks. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/descpageSWMBSSTRX-BTB.html Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squigster Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I can make the bait but I paint like a 3 year old. I can send you a few pics later this weekend to see what you think but they will be solid colors or clear with flake with some pearl backs and bellys with holographic eyes. Let me know.

Mags Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Send me a few pics. I'd be interested in what you have. Other than Basstrix that shape of bait is not out there for sale and Basstrix are about impossible to get. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smallie Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Are they hollow like the Basstrix paddletail minnows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mags Posted March 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 I have never held one in my hands, but yes I believe they are hollow. I have some of the Kamakazee Minnrs and they are hollow like a tube with a cut tail. His bait is beautiful, but not in a sunfish shape. They are shaped like a minnow. A sunfish shaped bait in the post-spawn around docks should be a good one. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delw Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 yes they are hollow, the shape of the knife to dip them is almost exactly like the bait itself. 2 dips in semi warm plastic and your done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gofish,ill Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 ive been trying to figure out how to make a gizzard shad for the same kind of thing.was leaning towards casting a jighead out of foam with the dropper running thru it and solid bodies?never thought of making it hollow.

empire247 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 not to hi-jack this thread but i had heard that basstrix got bought out by pradco last week , has anyone else heard that? and if they really did im sure by summer they will be easy to find as pradco will mass produce those big time. brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
