Tony Maxwell Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Watched FLW California Delta Tournament this past weekend. They were using 1 1/2 oz weights with a "Punch Skirt" ??? with a texas rigged Sweet Beaver. Do It used to make a mold similar to a spinnerbait head with collar. Is that close??? Any info appreciated. Thanks in advance. Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalljaw Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Do-it has what is called the slip jig which is basically a worm weight with a collar on it so you can add a skirt, it's an excellent lure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flippinfool Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 I saw it also. Looks like a plastic disc that the skirt is molded into ? I've been trying since sunday to make something that would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Tony, The one that I'm familiar with is the one that Smalljaw has stated. I've been making them for several years and they work great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Maxwell Posted November 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Have some in the process even as we speak. Used my old spinnerbait mold, cut off a hook shank and poured around it. Drilled out the hole, smoothed off the sharp edges etc. etc. Am in the process of painting. My next concern is how to hold it while tying the skirt on? Will probably try wrapping the head with a wide rubberband and clamping it up long enough to tie the skirt on. Will keep[ everyone posted.

KandyBass Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 You can buy these skirts from Skirts Plus dirt cheap. Do not rememver exact price i know they are a whole lot cheaper. I believe they call them "the hole in one" or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Maxwell Posted November 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 (edited) I buy my skirt strips from Skirts Plus, along with a few other places. That way I can have the exact colors I want, as full as I want, etc. etc. and make them myself dirt cheaper. Just concerned with tying them in place. Don't like the rubber collars.

weighinalimit Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 I buy my skirt strips from Skirts Plus, along with a few other places.

I figured a way to make these..I take the inside of a bic stik ink pen (the ink tube part) clean it out with lighter fluid & a small bit of cotton pushed thru with spinnerbait wire. Cut the tube in 5/16" long pcs, stick a toothpick in one end of a pc and hold it close to a lighter flame. The plastic will melt into a "mushroom shape", stick it in water to harden, turn the pc around and repeat so you wind up with a hourglass shaped plastic pc that will be the inner tube. Fasten your choice of skirting with thread or wire and viola', you have a redneck tech "punch skirt"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
