Mudd Butt Baits Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 the bubbles suck to work with but they do work. I have got my 5" Twitch'n Pop top water chug worm to float with a #3 hook. I just started a facebook page for them. Mudd Butt Baits, let me know if you need any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bflp Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Yum Money Hounds float. I wonder what they use.? ...Bill I was going to say the same thing. Those float really well, even with a 5/0 hook. I wonder, are those that Silicone stuff that the floating Z-Man stuff is made of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudd Butt Baits Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 the large companies can a ford to use cyberflex. I have found that it is EPA regulated and it is a epoxy that that works like jb weld. I tried a foaming agent that the car companies use for all the plastic parts and it let one worm float and the next would sink. I just ordered 5 gallons of bubbles and plastic. Don't go over 50/50 as the plastic get real foamy felling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mudd Butt Baits Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Does it feel more like memory foam? You can squeze it and it will come back to shape? It take alot of floater bubbles to get the bait to loose 20-30% of it body denisty. Plastisol is like.9 and water is 1.0, so the worms will float or are boyuant in water, until you add a hook. The bubbles also make the plastic white before coloring, so you can't get a see through bait if you are going to float them. The bubbles also make the bait stiffer, I am going to play around with the softner and see how far I can take it and still get it to float.
