Posts: 273 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. | ||

Posts: 2219 Location: SE, WI. | 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. JD | ||

Posts: 2219 Location: SE, WI. | 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!

Posts: 2219 Location: SE, WI. | 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 ! jd
