FishinGang916 Posted November 30, 2023 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 Wanted a closer to true panfish profile bait around the size of my small fry but a bit thicker so I can get add more ballast for a better tune. So far I'm really digging it. I kept debating on scales or not. Went with no scales in the end. Got lucky on the 1st tune (never happens lol) and the action was great so made a few more to test the ratio/weight placement and was pleased. R&D continues . Lmk your thoughts so far. 20231124_124255.mp4 20231124_124205.mp4 Big Epp, brootalititties, justintrask and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A shallow diver or wake would be perfect for pond hopping Thanks man ! That's what I'm going for forsure, a little of both for versatility, Ifish alotta ponds with my pops and his friends but they dont have setups for big swimbaits so I figured I'd make something they can throw. I'll have to send you a few once they are perfected and I get some fish on em lol danthefisherman and Big Epp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
