Re: Wigglefin action disc

Max, sounds good to me, if you can't do what Swede suggested, that should work. You could also cut both ends off a clear 'bubble float', which might give you the disc and the stem all in one- let us know how whatever you do works.pete

Re: Wigglefin action disc

This is what I have come up with and like it a lot.




The mold has 0.50 wire threw the center then pulled out after its poured. I like to put a bead in front of the hook and it wobbles very well. Its hard to snag dragging it and sticks up when you stop. You can cut the top off for a contoled wobble.

Yes that is a blank DO-IT mold. Cut with a dremel and a drill press.

Re: Wigglefin action disc

Kelly- like it, and it would give your worm/jig a bit of depth as well - I'm assuming you are casting it with lead.
Keep us posted on your results.pete

Re: Wigglefin action disc

I have had this made just over a year. They are cupped a little and cast from lead. The larger one is good for trolling and fills like a hard bait shaking. The smaller one I rig a bead between the hook and the lead. Both make a worm swim like a snake. The hook is rigged weedless so it hard to snag. I like to leave them unpainted so I can cut them (like a bow tie)to change the way they swim. To tell you the truth they are my second favorite sinker.
