lilcraw Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 I pour around 2000 blade baits a season, nothing fancy at all, silver and brass, I do have some prism tape in red and chart. that I can stick on them. I use a VMC clip on treble hook also a VMC red hook as well, The mold is the older Do-It mold in the 1/4 oz and 5/8 oz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC Musky Dude Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 I have some blades but have not put any together, still need to get a couple jigs for them. Another excuse to put an order in! I've never seen one in the water and am anxious to try em out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinman Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 Got the same 1/4 thru 5/8 oz Do-it mold. Make some from lead & some tin to vary weights. Made some big prototypes out of some #7 .040 musky willow blades a couple days ago & epoxied a 1 oz rubber core sinker (minus rubber) to the belly. They look like an overgrown Reef Runner Cicada. Haven't tried 'em yet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairjig Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 i have fooled around the last couple of years I have fooled around the last couple of years with a new stand up blade bait. What I mean by stand up is it stands up on the bottom. Works great through the ice for walleyes and saugeyes. I only make one size 1/4oz.
