mark poulson Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I just posted two pictures in the Hard Baits Gallery of a group of bluegill baits I just made. http://www.tackleunderground.com/community/gallery/image/15541-three-bluegill-baits2/ I really wanted to share the aluminum prop for the Whopper Plopper copy. FrogAddict suggested using aluminum because it is light and easy to shape. He is right! I included the other two because, as Barney says, "Sharing is caring". ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Very nice work Mark. That tail really looks like it is going to fire water forward and sound like a herd of bull-frogs. Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted February 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Thanks Dave. It is surprisingly loud for it's small size, and makes noise even on a very slow retrieve. But the best part is it is much easier to make than carving one out of PVC! And the bait still floats level on the pause! FrogAddict is the MAN!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted February 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Thanks. I always feel a little guilty posting my baits with nail polish paint jobs, because you guys are such artists. But they work, so I guess the fish have no taste.
