nedyarb Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) From the do-it catalog, where would I get this type of skirt? Edited February 24, 2014 by nedyarb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 The brown round rubber you can get from Lure Parts On Line or Jann's. The other strands mixed in don't look like round rubber, maybe flat silicone. It also looks like its crème colored. If that is crème color, and flat silicone, I know for a fact that fishing skirts.com has it. If you want fast service get your round rubber from LPO, can't beat it and shipping is reasonable.

mark poulson Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Does the newer round rubber melt like the old stuff did? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark, The product I mentioned that I buy, to me does not feel like rubber. What I want to say, it is more like round silicone. But I can't say for sure. I will tell you that it doesn't smell like rubber. Also I personally like this material. If you want a small piece before you buy, PM me your mailing info.

Painter1 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Ted, so is the "round rubber" a larger strand? How well does it work mixed with regular silicone strands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Painter, To me it mixes well with flat silicone skirt tabs. I think the skirt looks fuller and has more bounce in the water. The strands on this are .032 dia. round. PM sent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just hoping that they'd come up with a rubber that doesn't melt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
