UNC Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 I'm very new to making my own baits, as in I got my fist injection mold less than a week ago. I have looked on here for some recipes to get a senko to have the fluttering action when it falls but all that seems to come up in my searches are color recipes and such. As for my equipment I have a Do-It 5 In Senko mold, Do-It essential series plastiol medium, Do-it injector, and Do-It colors. I use pickling salt that I bought at walmart and some glitter that I found at a hobby store. The mix I have been using is 1 cup plastiol, 1/4 salt, 1/4 tsp glitter. The colors look pretty good like this and the fall rate isn't too bad compared to a real Senko. My question is how to get the fluttering action that a real Senko has. I'm nervous to add much more salt because my first batch with it I used 1/3 cup and the baits were super cloudy and I noticed I had air pockets in about 1/2 to 3/4 of the baits I injected with that mix. My ratio was a lot better with the 1/4 mix but that might have been because I was learning how to inject a little better. Any help at all would be great.

mark poulson Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Salt makes senkos stiffer, so use soft plastic, and add some softener, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
