River Runt Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 Hey fellas how's it going? I had a question for you pourers. I am pouring my own shakey head worms 4.5 inch straight tail. Question is how much salt should I infuse to get the worm to stand at about 45 degrees, instead of straight up? Any help would be great thanks.

Apdriver Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 We don’t have a 45 degree salt recipe. What we usually pour is a salt to taste and a standard Senko recipe. To sink. Senko Recipe 1 cup plastic, 4 tablespoons worm salt, 2 tablespoons softener Salt to taste 1 cup plastic, 1 tablespoon worm salt, 1/2 tablespoon softener 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass-Boys Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 trial and error ,, for you to figure out.. each bait and plastic are different so you just have to make some and test . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
River Runt Posted March 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Thanks alot I have never added salt to my plastic, so I was really looking for a good starting point to minimize time and product loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckeyeFishing Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Trail and error is probably your best bet. Just take note of how much salt you added once you get to the desired effect. Also remember, adding salt will change the color of you bait too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallmouthaholic Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Salt makes a plastic bait sink.It's the design and stability of the jig head that gives the soft bait the desired angle of flotation! Test your baits and jig heads in a swimming pool or a 5 gallon bucket of water 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
