bmadd Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 I am looking into using a small buzz blade (1/8 oz size) as a tail for a small swimbait, like the tail on the Daiwa Dead or Alive bait. I was just wondering if you guys could help me figure out a way to mount this and be able to use a rear hook hanger. Basically it will be like a prop bait but with a small buzz blade instead of a prop. Can it work and be sturdy enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clamboni Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 Absolutely. Look up a lot of the saltwater plugs and use that type of through wire. They're a single wire with twisted ends at head and tail. Swivels or other twisted wire make hangers in the middle. Leave the center wire long, put a bead, blade then another bead on. Then twist the eye in. Make sure you leave a little extra so the blade can spin freely. Or........you could use screw eyes. Twist up a wire big enough for the blade, loops at both ends. Attach front end to screw eye, back end to split ring and hook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
