Thread: Floating soft plastic plastisol

I like your idea Mike. That would make one killer bait at times

I am just looking at other methods than using the bit of pool noodle. I started to put pieces of pool noodle in the mold and pour hot plastisol around it but I was scared to try. This video is what got me to start experimenting.

Small piece of coffee stir straw with the ends crimped and sealed to create an air pocket. I remember years ago Mr Twister made a plastic called a slimmy Slug. About 4 inches long. Heavy enough to cast with spinning gear. Was made to sink slowly with a 4/0 worm hook rigged weedless. Those things allowed to sink and jerked like a dying shad. Those bass would knock the snot out that thing.

Interesting my friend. We will be doing a lot of experimenting this week. I am still intrigued by this also. I guess I goofed somehow when I posted this above. Anyway, here is his video.

Interesting stuff

Microbubbles or just stir bubbles in naturally before shooting?

Would the air bubbles cause the surface of the bait to be porous or would it be smooth ?

Is there a source for microbubbles? Thank you for the heads up.
