tigerfire Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 I just got through reading an interesting article in the Oct. issue of FLW magazine about buoyant plastics. So now I'm wondering, how do you create an air pocket in a bait? I'm thinking if you wanted a chamber for a rattle you could use a rod, pour around it and remove. Similar to a line through swimbait. But what about a totally enclosed pocket that has an air bubble? Interested to hear your thoughts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 I use a cajun hand injector for my worms, and wind up with air bubbles in the top of the larger worms and senkos. I just weld them shut with an Iovino worm welder, and they stand up when I T rig or shakey head rig them. Unintentional, but it works out. I think it happens because I don't have a large enough reservoir of hot plastic above the worm cavity to run back down in after I inject them. It doesn't happen on the thinner worms.
