Title: make underspins using the Swimbait Head without having to modifying the mold.
Post by: Skimpy253 on 03/20/18 09:19 UTC

My buddy wanted to make some underspins and liked the Swimbait Head.  So we came up withj a way to make underspins using the Swimbait Head without having to modifying the mold.  I think they came out pretty nice !  Let me know what you think !

  Pretty cool !

  I will say you were making my butt pucker when you were drill it and just holding the head with your bare hand. I would recommend laying that down before drilling.

I was sort of waiting to see that drill bit slide into his hand myself.

Pretty cool way of getting that job done though. I enjoy his videos.

lol sorry about the lack of safety with drilling guys.  My buddy Anthony was drilling it while I was filming.  We even mentioned putting in a vise but for some reason we just started filming with him doing by hand.

Now that's a good buddy...one willing to risk limbs and fingers to make a bait. lol

Love your clips Skimpy. Lots of good ideas come from them.

That was terrific!  Really thinking outside the box and without changing  the mold.

  I like your clips as well. Very informative and this one is outside the box thinking. I like that.

  I'm just a guy that works a lot with a cordless drill. I'm also a guy that has many scares on my hands from getting in a hurry instead taking the time to be safe. So I've got no right to preach.

Very cool. Have you tested it out? does the blade hit the bottom of the bait?
