Title: Coring my last iCraw.
Post by: Oracle Lures on 05/22/18 00:25 UTC
Retired the last bit of fun left out of the icraw... ithink. So I figured I'd make a few for the photo library, oil up the mold, seal, and store it.
So, having some (idk 20 gauge?) wire on the table, I cut and bent a portion to run a channel from... Well, there's a photo. You get it. I shot the cavity with that sweet sweet mold sauze by Dead On Plastix...
From there, I opened the mold, removed the runner and wire, reseated the now semi-hollow clear, clamped it up and shot with a HOT Dead On Plastix black. E-core is fun, no doubt about it. So much potential (room for activities - for those in the know) in this style, and I'm really looking forward to seeing it develop.

Sweet bait. Like you E Core is a cool look and endless at what you can do.

  I love the iCraw bait and would never retire it. The best jig trailer I got. And I've also caught a lot of fish using it on a shaky head.

Right on, Oracle... me too. 

I hope you continue experimenting with the E-Core in your baits and help develop some of this potential for the rest of us to see.
