.035'' diameter wire, 5/0 Owner hook set far back in the lead to mitigate the need for a trailer hook, Airbrushed with three different colors, dipped in UV reactive clear coat, sealed with KBS diamond finish, Nichols blades, ball bearing swivel, hand tied keeper that can hold elaztech, 6th sense 3d crush eyes, hand tied skirt with reverse flare (thank you for that tip bassjiggin1955). Is there anyone making better spinnerbaits with do it molds? If so I wanna see them!!

This is the real deal super fluke mold. No angling ai, no epic baitmolds, but the real zoom fluke. I make them in different colors and plastic densities for myself.

I started cutting the lead keeper off my jigs and tying a trailer keeper like that. It brings the weight forward slightly on the jig head and changes up the action.

Thanks again ^^ I've done a few bladed jigs like that and they absolutely pulsate in water. These are some zako style bladed jig trailers I made with epic bait molds "epic darter"

I used 3/8oz lead, #4 humdinger blade, 3/0 owner spinnerbait hook, and 2 strips of all terrain keitech skirt material in tennessee shad. I've been getting a lot of bites with this jig. Ignore the weird line tie, i ran out of snaps and had to improvise.

Here's a curly tail swimbait mold designed by Marling baits. Its 5.5 inches and has a weighted tail with a super hard thump. Good pond bait, gets big bites, but it takes about 1/4th oz of lead to get the tail going unless you make it out of super soft plastic. If you haven't watched Marling baits youtube channel, I highly suggest it- extremely entertaining and you learn a thing or two about lure making.

My bladed jigs. #4 Humdinger blade, Do-it mold, 3/0 Trokar or Owner hook, and 2 tabs of skirt material tied in reverse flare the way bassjiggin1955 does it. I do a base coat of powdercoat and bake it on for durability, then airbrush some details, glue eyes, and dip in UV clear coat. I use my own rage menace style trailer that i got from baitmold.com. The 3/8oz run about 1-4 feet deep on a steady retrieve and get absolutely smashed! I appreciate the comments banker.
