Posts: 271 Location: davis,IL | I don't know quite what this will do, but I had to try combining two of my surface creations in one bait. What do you think? Attachments ----------------  JR Baits 040.jpg (32KB - 112 downloads) JR Baits 037.jpg (38KB - 106 downloads) | ||

Posts: 271 Location: davis,IL | I took your advice Shawn and turned the tail down as well as shrink tubing the back hook. Tomorrow weather permitting I'll take it down to the incoming creek on my local lake and give it a few casts. I've been down by the creek 6 or 7 times in the last week or so and get some crazy looks, but with a foot of ice still on the lake it doesn't leave many options close by. Maybe I am nuts to be down there, but I have only one question; Where the heck is global warming when you need it! After all it's spring already, enough of this snow crap!

Posts: 271 Location: davis,IL | Looked pretty good, the front blade makes a decent wake and the tail kind of dances and slaps the water. I just completed a wtd topwater, it walks fairly good.

Posts: 271 Location: davis,IL | Thanks Shawn, I've been making bucktails for years and have tried my hand at hard baits from time to time. These so far are the best, as to me catching the big one that would be cool ( missed a fifty last year on one of my bucks), but for now it's more important that Dad puts a big one in the boat. I'll have my day, but him first. Here's a pic of his pb from last year (45") on one of my bucks tied on the spot after seeing what was moving them.
