I've been getting lots of fish running crankbaits into cover on the river, so I wanted to make something bigger that will deflect off the thick stuff and draw bigger bites. Figured I'd try for a glide/twitchbait first and move on after I either succeed or give up haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogervang Posted July 11, 2020 Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 Hey I'll buy you some silicone if you let me get at one when your done hahahaha bait looks good man. A cranker will definitely draw out the bites. danthefisherman and BigBaitThirty 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After I get these new hard baits dialed we'll consider looking into injectors. Still looking around for a good locking model that's not too pricey, but even after we find one we'll have to remake all our soft bait molds to accommodate it. We have lots of work ahead haha El_Weruso and BigBaitThirty 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even from afar, It’s an honor. Keep on keeping on brother Keep on Keeping on. Justin, thank you so much for the encouraging words of affirmation. I likewise have always enjoyed following along with your builds and talking bait making every once and awhile. Can hardly say I've arrived at greatness, but I am extremely thankful for the years of crafting I have been able to experience nonetheless. It truly is a blessing from God that I have the freedoms and time to be able to pursue my passions for fishing and building. From supportive friends, family, and strangers to having the physical capabilities and resources to build and fish...reclecting on how far I've come and all the things that have enabled me to come this far leaves me humbled and grateful. I thank @swimbaitunderground for providing the platform for us to thrive as anglers and artists. I thank the amazing community here on SU for always being so positive and encouraging and even stepping up to get me started throwing swimbaits in the first place. I will never forget the kindness of those members and all the blessings I have received, which motivates me to make the most of the opportunities given to me and put my best foot in all I do. Again, thanks Justin and thanks SU! Tight lines and happy building Dan Genothefisherman3, El_Weruso, swimbaitunderground and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
