Was gonna throw the other one towards the swap but since we’ve got till the end of May I’ll just build a couple more and document the process along the way. Made of Poplar wood 5.5” body / 10” with tail ~3.5 oz Those are some sweet rats! BigBaitThirty and Doomlurker 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What size/type of baits do you prefer to fish? I say the bottom right into a bass glide or bigger top left into a 3pc gizzard shad Big Epp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process77 Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 Ok, kind of a weird one. I typically put I little of my step dad’s ashes in all my personal baits so he can catch a few more fish. It would be cool if he could land one in a different area. Is that going to wig anyone out. I take zero responsibility for any paranormal activity. wolten, Seed420, Rogervang and 3 others 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doomlurker Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 Split the bait yesterday and got the hardware installed. Gotta sand the joints then pour the lead and seal the wood. BigBaitThirty, Swimb8ting_TheSouth, azfisher and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m curious, does it only get lead in the belly like in your drawing or is that just the starting point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
