muskietom51 Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Hey guys I've got a few baits on the bench that I want to make jointed, my question is should I just use eye screws to attach? What about using a snap ring to join the 2. Just looking for some new ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
out2llunge Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 You can use screw eyes and if they're of the "open" type, you can hook them together and crimp them after they're joined. Alternatively, you with "closed" eyes, you can use a heavy (#7 or bigger) split ring to join the two eyes. And lastly, you could join them with a thru wire method.

LaPala Posted December 18, 2004 Report Share Posted December 18, 2004 How about embedding multistrand(49) wire like in my jointed minnow? For big muskie baits I think using up to 110lb wire should still be able to provide enough flex for the desired action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
