daveh Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 i use lc plastic and it floats off the bottom. even my 10 full round trick worms float off the bottom. i guess thats why they catch fish. great action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB GONE Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 dramone..... All the soft plastics readily available will "float" without additive unless you add salt or a very large amount of glitter to the bait. The microshperes can be used however you will greatly reduce the number of colors you can achieve as the spheres will turn your plastic a bright white. As far as the shaky heads go, you may want to post in the Wanted Ads section or go into the hard bait section with your questions. Good luck!
