fishnart Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hello all, I have a question. I paint baits but don't make them. Have I seen glide baits without joints? A stick bait sorta bait that swims under the surface? I was thinking of taking the bill off of a Bagley's Monster Shad, I'm sure I'd have to weight it to keep it upright, but I'm thinking of a topwater bait?? What do you experts think?

Nathan Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Musky fisherman have been fishing baits similar to that for years...The whole "Glide bait" craze has just recently caught on with Bass fisherman...Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benton B Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Use the Rebel Jumpin Minnow as a guide but I don't see why your idea will not work. You may have to weight the tail of the bait so the nose is above the water a little. Should give you a nice erractic walking action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
