Bassindaily Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I made a slow sink glide bait out of pine it was so hard to get the right amount of weight and placement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derds126 Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 The weighting on glide baits is super tricky. Try watching this video to see how to weight it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trav Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 The weighting on glide baits is super tricky. Try watching this video to see how to weight it. I already have an idea on how Im going to weigh it, I just dont think Ill have enough area on the bait to remove and replace with a ballast. Maybe a heavy floater glide bait?

trav Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Thank you! Its still far from being done, but Im having fun with this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fl Swimbaiter Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 This looks amazing do you use a knife and carve the bait after you cut it down to the shape you want? I'm starting to make my own swimbaits and am wondering some ways to design and put weights in easier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
