bladesandbaits Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Any idea what the material for the little "hoodie/bib" is made of ? I have a bunch of the lures that the "hoodie/bib" is old ,cracking and worn out. I have caught a ton of fish on them. I would like to try and make a few replacement "hoodies/bibs" instead of buying more lures. Thanks in advance. Regards, Blades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basseducer Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 What always came to mind for me was the vinyl vertical blind looking things they use in cold storage warehouses. Don't know what they are actually called. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimpNoodle Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Do you mean the lip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladesandbaits Posted April 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Yes sir, the lip. Basseducer. The first thing that came to mind was the curtain material.Its actually PVC material.The curtain material typical of walk in coolers/warehouse doors is to thick .080 is the minimum thickness I can find and the Lip/Hoodie is .060. I believe the srounger material is vinyl not PVC. Thanks guys. Blades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basseducer Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 That's just what came to mind. I figured it would be too thick, but thought that it could be had a bit thinner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 I have fished scroungers for a long time, and one of the main problems with them is the lip in the longer lengths is too soft. I wind up putting some brush on crazy glue on the back to stiffen it. So maybe the thicker stuff would work, at least in terms of making the lip stiffer.

bladesandbaits Posted April 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 I'm going to try the curtain material.I'll give some feedback as soon I have some. Thanks again! Regards, Blades 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladesandbaits Posted April 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 The thicker material does work well. You have to wind the bait very slow or the bait foils. Guess it might work on a heavy head (3/4 oz) but not with a 1/2 oz. These fish on the Blue Back lakes wont eat it moving slow. Thanks for all the input.
