Coley Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 Is it OK to make a crankbait out of #2 yellow pine such as those found in a 2 x 4 used in building a house?? I will assume pine is not as dense as cedar therefore will float higher in the water?? Coley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reaper lures Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Pine is an exelent wood floats high and fast. It is also my secret pine has has a hell of a wobble with a coffin bill lip. A lot of people in my area are like what you use pine but when they try my baits they wana buy them right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
