DuckButter Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Hello everyone. My real name is matt. I live in Escalon, Ca.Ive been fishing for bass for about 12 years. I fish the Delta & Sierra lakes mostly, But Clear Lake is my favorite fishery. Bass and stripers are what I chase. Ive been making baits since 2009. I started by Pouring and tieing jigs, Then i started microwaving all my old broken senkos to pour new jig trailers...Then that was it. I was not only hooked on fishing but the hobby of making lures was sparked. I turned wood lures, Poured soft plastic swimbaits from molds I made out of cheep stuff like bondo lol...In the last few years Ive been pouring polyurathane swimbaits and topwater baits. I had a hard time with my silicone molds bubbling, so I made my own vacume chamber out of a tupperware box and a shop vac. Not the best...but it actually works! Ive been a lurker here on and off for awhile now. Some of the members here influenced me from other social media sites. I dont go on alot of forums. But this one has provided endless information and entertainment for a while, so I decided to give back by signing up. Thanks for having me-DB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
