Mojo Posted October 5, 2004 Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 Z, I also have problems keeping my tails thin sometimes. I usually heat the plastic really hot when pouring into thin tailed molds. It helps to pour from head to tail too. GaBassNerd or anyone else that gets Bassmaster magazine, any chance of getting the article scanned in and sent to me? I don't belong to BASS, and I've only dropshot in the shallows! It would be interesting to see what the author is doing differently than me. Thanks.

BigZ Posted October 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 I finally got time off enough to go kick around and test the baby slither at Uvas Reservoir and Chesbro Reservoir today. Weather was awesome, about 70 at the most, and a little windy. I was catchin' fish on Rat-L-Traps and Slithers (drop shot and mojo rigged, 4" and 6"). They are really chowin' on the shad right now. All of the fish were tight to the bank in ambush mode for the most part. Water is HELLA low and I like it like that! This fish hit a baby slither on a 3/8 mojo rig (1/0) at least 4 or 5 times before I could stick him. Notice there is no tail on the worm anymore. First cast with the bait for today, I was happy. Smoky blue shad strikes again! 12"-15" fish were the rule of the day, and damn it felt good to get the waders on and go kick around in the float tube again. My legs are gonna kill tomorrow I bet.....LoL. Totalled out 11 fish at Uvas, 7 at Chesbro. Not a bad day. PS: It sucks taking pics from a float tube!
