Shmang 0 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 I picked up some of the 1 5/8 inch Balsa crank bodies from Lurecraft-- what size lip would best fit that size bait? I purchased a few sizes but one is too long and the other too short. Any "best" size? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diemai 228 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 @ Shmang Can't you shorten the bigger ones ? Sounds like your baits are pretty small , maybe you'd be lucky downloading the catalog of Welcome to Moore's Lures , there is a size chart of lips in there(though most likely bigger ones , just a few small) , problem would only be , to size the PDF file correctly on the screen , so that you could have a direct comparison . good luck , diemai:yay: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobP 944 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 I use a lip with about 1/2" exposed length. I cut them from polycarbonate but you can cut a bigger lip down with tin snips, or sand it down with a Dremel tool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shmang 0 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 Thanks gents. I will be modifying one tonight to test it out. I scoped out a few bandits to get a better understanding of what "should" work. I sure appreciate the help. Take care Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
