highwayman Posted May 13, 2022 Report Share Posted May 13, 2022 I bought some 4' soft swimbaits (Berkley I think) that worked pretty well but got torn up easily.They were hollow bodied so I filled the void with caulk and used weighted hook with a screw thing.The caulk was tough enough to hold the screw and hook in place so I could catch multiple fish on the same lure.Normally I don't mess with soft baits this much but I think they discontinued making this style bait. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highwayman Posted May 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2022 It is said that a lazy man will find an easier way to do a job before a smart man will.In this case a cheap man over clever man (or maybe a cheap clever man) Thanks either way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
