Thanks Paul...

Joe; these were built on 1.5 and 2 oz heads...with all the fixens, they are just shy of 4 oz.

Rbh, yes I like the blacks, and I really like the orange, but moved a bunch of fish last year on the yellows;)

Location: US		Those are nice! What did you use for the tinsel/flash? I've been looking for wider flashabou to use as an accent like that and haven't really found anything besides the standard flashabou.

I usually buy my components from Moores lures. I like the saltwater tinsel best , 1/16 th.

 On occasion, I'll use 1/32, but tends to tangle more than the salt water. Many lure component suppliers carry the saltwater tinsel, OR, you can go direct to Hedron to purchase.

Nice JD! Spinnerbaits look great. I'd love to see those bat fails you pour in the water. Not the typical dbl tail

Eric; will have to get a video of those puppies for you. As soon as we can get some soft water, and get the Mrs, or go pro ready. Will do!!!

Remember about 7 years back I made and modified and milled my mold...poured up a half dozen...attached one to a spinnerbait....then first time using one of these....first hour....stuck a 45+, and fell in love with the trailer. About 2-3 weeks later, same area, lost about a 51-53" trolling a spinnerbait. 

 Used the mister twister dbl for years,and loved them, but when in big fish water, this BAT, seems to move some biggins!

Nathan, these baits were built on 1 1/2 oz. to 2oz heads. About 4 oz. total weight.

 I do pour heads from 5/8 - 8 oz heads....and can incorporate BAT'S on all!

 Thanks Eric,

Had a local Baitmaker request a few Orange/yellow BATS. Turned out Nicely. The orange almost looks a pink Hue in pic BUT, Nice Vibrant Orange...

U Like?

I still like the Black/Yellow a tad more:)

Made a Mold to pour up some Junior BATs. Not Quite as large as my Big Ass Trailer, But wanted something a tad bigger than Mr Twisters twin tail/ left Org/Br, A little larger paddle, But something Smaller than the Original BAT/ Orange One.

Also tied up 3, 5oz heavy weight Spinnerbaits, for higher speed, and OR Deeper Running.

The Black/Orange and Gold/Silver has Treble incorporated, Rainbow tinsel has a Single hook System !
