johnnytheboy Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 i'm just making baits just now, so i haven't tried it but i planned to rig them up, hooks eyes etc etc then use some weights tied to the bottom treble to see what makes it sink at the rate i want, then the tough bit is putting that amount of weight in the right place i guess, also i suppose the lure wil be lighter when lead holes get drilled but it will just be a case of dabbling till its right i'm just a beginner so this might be rubbish but its where i plan to start from hope it helps tightlines john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
