Lonestarbaitcompany Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 Nice, there is little more rewarding then catching a fish on a bait you made yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rmullen99 Posted July 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 Thanks. Went out last night and caught a few on them. Nothing huge but still caught some. Really cool using your own bait. I may have to get medium next time cause these things are extremely soft. One fish or two fish most and the baits were ripped apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinfool Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 This is the recipe I use for my sticks, they're nearly identical to the senko. 1/2 cup medium/soft pourasol 2 1/2 Tablespoons powdered salt 3/4 Tablespoon softener Also just a little tip in case you haven't heard it before, if you are using these stick baits wacky style take a rubber o ring and slide it onto the middle of the bait and then take your hook and slide it under the o ring without hooking the plastic. This will greatly increase the life of your baits, I have had the same green pumpkin blue stick bait on my rod for three outings and it has caught probably 15-20 fish. Your baits look great by the way, I know nothing beats that feeling you get catching fish on something you've made yourself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass-Boys Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 make sure you have mixed the plastic very very well,, the hardner part of the plastic will settle to the bottom. The last batch ( 5 gallons ) I got from spike it ,, settled very bad and had to be mixed a lot before use. it has to be mixed 100 % .. scrape the inside bottom of your plastisol jug to see if any is still stuck to the bottom..
