Title: E-Core to create stand up Turds for Midwest Finesse / Ned Rig
Post by: andrewlamberson on 06/25/17 15:33 UTC

I was making some E-Core 4" stick baits from the 4" Essential Series Senko mold and  I wondered if they would float if I didn't fill the core?

I really like the new Midwest Finesse/Ned Rig jigs from Do-it and I was wondering if I cut the bait to the size I wanted and then sealed the base with some hot plastic if the Turd would float??? (like the Elaztech baits)

Yep!

Way cool. I noticed even just plain plastic no additives stays up decent, but I'm sure the empty core works super.

Great job Andy!!!! 4" carrot work great for me the wiggle in the tapered tail is too much for any fish to let get away
