I am sending Arden to man my booth. I was not able to have anything new ready for the show so I decided to do a sale instead. Just about every bait at my booth is marked down 25%. So if any of you guys are looking for good value stop by and check it out. Thank you

i think those are cool. I would rather catch a few weird fish then the same species every time.

Yes brass turns plastisol green. Yours are the worst I have seen. Anything that can withstand plastisol should work. Epoxy works well as does powder coating and I am sure there are many more that will work. Your baits that appear to be line through will might still get a tiny bit of green at the ends of your inserts because you cant coat the inside of your insert. It might not though as long as the plastisol is not touching any uncoated part. Aluminum insert won't discolor your baits.

This is caused by the plastisol being in direct contact with lead. If the lead is not coated it will turn the plastic white or even brown with some plastisols.

That's a great picture Carl

go right ahead Carl

Yes it's mine. I plan on eventually releasing them. It has a thick layer of clear, it is just hard to tell in that picture. The joints are unique in that they are designed to be quiet. No clacking or smashing together with a smooth swim and a lot of thump. the fins are made from a very strong flexible material. I have released many different baits over the years both soft and hard. However I have more protos and unreleased baits then what I have released.

El_Weruso sorry if I didn't respond. I definitely didn't do it on purpose. I dont remember anybody asking for a tail for my surface glide. I actually dont have any extras right now but I do plan on making some more tails soon. Brocks tail does look good though. I wanted to see how your bait swims but I cant watch the video. It will play a couple seconds then pause for a couple minutes.?

my best seller is the slow sink, and its my favorite to use. However I have guys that swear by each of the specific rates.

The Hudd wins and I dont even think its arguable. I find it interesting that guys say the Slammer. I see a lot of fish caught on that bait in the right side of the country. However I haven't seen nearly the results on my side. I am sure there have been some fish caught but its completely different on the west coast. I believe the Slammer is an east coast bait.

The medium sinks don't just flop over either. They will stay upright with any line tension, but yeah the slow sinks will sit back upright if you knock them over.

The slow sink will not fall on its side when resting on the bottom.

Made by Scott Richardson. Probably at least 10 years old. They got bit, I would fish it.
