    Default Hot baits right out of the mold!


    I finally got the new plastic and got to shoot my new design. A bit like crappie thunder style baits, but smaller body diameter and the tail is sort of umbrella shaped,and flared out. It gives the bait a shuddering movement in the water. Top baits are 1.75" long and about .35" at the widest. smaller tubes are 1.5" long and .25" wide, with .312" flared tails and hollow. No tedious cutting on these tails ,they come out of the mold ready to use! Hot pink and white are my go to colors. The gills just love those little tubes, and they caught a few crappie too. Hopefully have a chance to try these bigger baits out next week.

    Thumbs up very professional looking

    you definitely have my number one looking plastic bait their I definitely like the body design is very different .how many cavity molds did you make I'm sure that that's going to be a good fish killer.

    very nice looking bait for sure, kind of looks like a squid. I have tried baits similar to those in the past and have had no success on them. It must just be my area though or me for that matter, because I know they must work. I have also seen people ask for that kind of bait. That is definately one of my favorite looking colors as well. I like the design very much.

    Thanks for the compliments folks! I did make this mold, and it shoots six baits. I hope they will catch fish. They look good to me in the water though.
