archeryrob Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) I wanted one of these, but larger for striper season on the Susquehanna flats. I always wanted to make some for bass fishing, but made a larger one to see if the stripers will eat it. I basically made it in CAD and blew it up until it was 3 1/2", the original was 2 1/4" and this look 3 times the size plus the tail makes it look larger. It weighs about an ounce with a 3/8 ox belly weight and 4/0 Siwash hook. it dives to about 4' Edited April 10, 2013 by archeryrob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Nice work Rob. It shows how a CAD program can help scale baits to particular needs. I have no idea how a Big D-Bait will work on saltwater species but it's one of my favorites for bass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
