JustinHill Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Since the cat is out of the bag I’ve been making baits, I guess I’ll share my adventure . I’ll start off with my early baits. I don’t have alot of time to mess with them so it’s been a long process. Always have been wood, and recently made the leap into resin. Let me know what you think.

JustinHill Posted April 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 The dark purple is a wood glide I made to get the idea of how they work. IMG_3897.MOV Jim137a, GreenPig, SVT THUNDER and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinHill Posted April 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 For whatever reason the chartreuse/yellow bait has done the most damage. CG_Fishes, Jim137a, evans_usmc69 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SVT THUNDER Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Your progression is obvious. That thing glides really nice. Especially for a fast sink. Impressive! BayAreaAngler and JustinHill 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impressive! Thank you, if you or anyone saw the recent cast and crank podcast YouTube with Stephan and I there’s a glimpse of what I’ve been working on. Still need to finalize a few things but here’s a sneak peak. Paulsbentpole, Jinxd12, evans_usmc69 and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends on what your time is worth. Wood is definitely cheaper but more time consuming and less durable. Resin has a more expensive start up cost but once you get it dialed it’s cheaper and faster. Swim is about the same. Big Epp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinHill Posted April 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2022 Drilled and removed the broken screw eye. Back filled with straight resin and then installed new longer heavier duty hardware. Good as new, he also got a new tail. Shipped back and in the mail in a day.
