fishon-son Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 This is how I move my plastic and salt mixture, 50/50 mix is the max for this unit. I use only rock salt which is one of the clearest and densest type of salts available. As you can see there is no settling with this method. https://www.facebook.com/thomas.kail.7/videos/10205873303891429/?l=4506783653748150337 To be frank....making an accurate weighted bait is a bitch. Its all a trade off when using different materials to make a weighted bait (rock salt, flake salt, evaporated salt and blasting media) and each and every one has a draw back somewhere in the process. Another big issue with salt is its tenacious appetite for moisture compounded by operator errors. Big tip...when using salt, add it to your plastic in the beginning, allowing any moisture to cook off BEFORE your plastic kicks. If you add salt to late in the process it will cause numerous issues that could be avoided. you have a great set up ...sure it works well for you.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camrynekai Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 You guys are still using salt? That's so 2014 LOL LOL I have been trying to go straight plastic using the sinking additives in place of the salt/glass. Just cant seem to get the action I get with my mix. Maybe you can enlighten an old school fella to how its done. just sayin' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
