h20fowler Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 Has anyone used this application for a swim bait the size of a rising son? Trying to make a rig for a 5” and 7” RS Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilcatfish Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 I have ran them with some success on the 316 minnow and 5" RS, but not the 7". Bought the parts and all online and made them myself. After some experimentation, I found I liked the regular size blades on these smaller swimbaits, but on the 7" RS I'd bet the mag size blade would work well. The vibration those large blades put out is pretty intense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoppabass Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 It can work. Zman had a discontinued saltwater version which swims great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deltaman Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 I have done it! I heated up some weedless swimbait hooks so I could open them just enough to slide a blade into. Give it a shot. Remove the centering pin first though. basskickinrednick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sense an order coming on! Thanks for the awesome idea! evilcatfish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurejerk Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 7" Rising Son been doing this a couple years now. I have found the fish do throw the bait because of the 1 oz. so I changed to the treble and hook ups increased dramatically. Here are the two versions I use. These I made …….Erik J. it was a matter of time lol. BrhodesBassin, BOZ, basskickinrednick and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jthod Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 I tried selling the ones I build in the Black Market section, but apparently it was swimbait related enough... 7/0 saltwater hook, 5/8-1.25oz heads. White one is rigged with a 6.8 Keitech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
