The first 4 guys to reply will get a free 20 pack of worms. In return all I ask is that you: 1: Fish these baits on a dropshot rig.2: Email me your results. 3: Write an honest opinion of the bait in gramatically correct english. 4: Have fun catching fish on my baits!

Mojo Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Man I'd love to get in on this, as I own the 6" Slither mold, but I don't have a boat. Kinda hard to drop shot when your bank fishing! Anyway, how about a pic Z? And will this mold become available for purchase? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.J. Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Hope I'm not too late. I always like field testing new baits. Drop shotting is the #1 technique up here in Washington. D.J.

BigZ Posted September 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Ok guys that's enough. That didn't take long to fill up. I'll try to get a pic up later tonight. I still have to get the bulk of them poured this weekend but I will get them out Monday. Mojo: I dropshot from the shore all the time and catch fish....or float tube. I'll let the one extra guy on, so five testers. THAT'S IT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drop shot in a lot of different environments (farm ponds, lakes and rivers) Real excited to try out your baits!!!! I'll keep the camera close as I'm sure there will be plenty bucketmouths to photo.

Mojo Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Thanks Z! I'll give 'shotting a try from the bank. Send mine to: Joel Amado Looking forward to trying them out and reporting back. I've had good luck with the 6", these should work great as well.

BigZ Posted September 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Bass8, thanks for posting a pic, glad you like the bait. I've been catching some nice fish on the 6" Slither carolina rigging. Right now I hardly have time to fish (GRUMBLE). I'm working on call doing hardware support and going to school full time (Bachelors in engineering). If I'm lucky I sneak in an hour or two on the way home. I'll keep you guys posted on when I get the baits done and out the door. I'm going to pour Friday night so I can get these done and some for my buddies as well as refilling the old worm binder for myself. If everything goes well, I'll get them out Saturday morning. I'll post pics of the finished product before they get sent out. I like to nose hook these guys on a #1 Owner mosquito hook on a dropshot or mojo rig 'em with a #1 EWG. Like Bass8 said, these have plenty of tail action. They are a downsized version specifically for finesse techniques. As far as testing, just let me know what time of day, date, water color, weather info, whatever. Also tell me which coilors work best. I have been throwing nothing but that damn smoky blue shad lately, it kills them everywhere I have tried it from 150' deep reservoirs to small creek fed ponds that are 6-8 feet deep in the deepest spots. Those of you that didn't make it will be put at the top of the list for the next new batch of baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigZ Posted September 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2004 I got 75% of the baits poured tonight. I still need to pour the smoky blue shad color and then I will get them out monday morning. Got sidetracked by an ex-GF otherwise everything would be done, but she was lookin' GOOD. LoL....

BigZ Posted September 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2004 Did anyone get the license plate number of that Jagermeister truck? LoL. I posted at 3:17 AM? I think it was more like 4:17 when I got home...LoL. Got the baits done for the testers, I need to get batteries for my camera and I will post pics tonight.

BigZ Posted September 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 Hey fellas, those of you that qualified should get your baits by the end of the week. I am sending them first class USPS in the morning. I'd appreciate it if someone else would post pics of the baits when they get their batch, my camera battery is being lame right now, I need to get a new one, it won't hold a charge at all and the macro mode isn't working either. I guess that's what I get for keeping it in the float tube! If you guys would post catch pics in this forum that would be way cool too, we caught a ton of fish, mostly dinks today and a lot of them were on the Scary Junebug color, we have been fishing nothing but smoke because the water has been gin clear. The water got stained from an oddball storm today, but fishing in the rain is fun as hell when the bite is on. Wish I would have brought the goretex, but it was fun anyway. No real size but TONS of fish. Seems like it doesn't matter how big a fish is if you catch it on your own bait, I smile every time, especially when it's a new bait!

GB GONE Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 The weather has started to cool down here and the fish are really moving!! Look forward to Z's bait as this should be a great time to test them. I'm charging up my camera batteries now!!! Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassin Jack Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 Thanks Z, I will get some pics done for ya when I get em. My camera should work. I have 2 one that gos in the boat and one that stays home (the stay home one should work.....the one on the boat is a bit tempramental) Cant wait.

BigZ Posted September 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 I got the baits out this morning. You guys should have them by the end of the week. I said 4 testers originally, but it didn't work out that way. Six of you guys in the end as it turned out, so I got to pour 120 baits...I hope you guys enjoy testing them, I know I did yesterday! The testers are as follows: KidLizardMojoGABassnerdD.J.Bassin' JackBassGreg (Who PM'ed me before any of you replied).I'll post a response form to you guys via PM later when I'm actually at home on a real computer and not on my laptop and wireless with a low battery!!!
