Baby Boss and Mr. Munch.....
« on: 11/14/21 11:31 UTC »
All the advertising and catalog pics make these guys appear larger than they really are. I figured that these two baits will best fit into my dock fishing program so I ordered the molds and got them last Friday. As soon as I got in the door from deer hunting I headed straight for the work room and shot these up. I've inserted a dime for size reference.



The molds were very clean right out of the wrapper so I didn't fiddle with washing them. I ran a shot of black thru each on them to get rid of the bit of humidity that formed by bringing the molds in from 25 degrees on the porch to the 60 degrees work space. The second shot is what you see here. The molds injected very clean given their temperature and all of the appendages filled completely. Both of these should simply hammer panfish. I tried to hold both baits perfectly still but that won't happen so for finessing the pannies  these look to be great additions to Do-It's already fine line of winter plastics.

For those wondering, I used Essential plastioc straight from the bottle and there's no shortage of action in the baits using this plastic as it comes. Now I need to play with colors and perhaps the twin injector.

Thanks for the picture Tom. I'm looking at both of those molds.

These are nice baits Gary. I'm trying these tomorrow on a 1/80th head under a small float set at 4 feet in the backwaters. I think the sunfish have moved to winter quarters now but crappies should like these and crappies are the target fish. Maybe later in the week the docks will see me creeping around and I know they'll be a hot one there.

Tom is the photo the bigger or smaller of the two Mr Munch?  I ordered it already as it looks like a great little bait.  I'm excited to see it in person.

Here ya go anyfish. The one in the first picture was the smaller of the two' Here's a picture again with the dime showing both sizes.



Not a huge amount of difference but I favor the smaller of the two right now but actual fishing may swing that.

Look nice Tom.  I think I'm going to pick up the Baby Boss and the Love Bug. I can't wait  to see what you come up with out of that dual injector on them.
