Senkosam Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) Recently I thought, why not make the body of a soft plastic by dipping it in hot plastic right from the microwave. In murky water the lure will be more visible and maybe fish don't like chubby intruders in their space. Here are a few: This reminds me of a tadpole: The bulb tail lures shown above the curl tails were also made thicker and did well catching fish with an action that was completely different.

mark poulson Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 Sounds like a good idea. I think that's what some people do to thicken the heads of their tubes, or to lock in the eyes on swimbaits, so I don't see why it wouldn't work for thicken the heads of regular soft plastic baits.
