« on: 09/08/14 23:49 UTC »
Got them in today and did a quick shoot before I had to go to work.. I shot in hard plastic to see how r hwy would do. Tails dont want to fully fill unless you shot hot and fast.  Mo Magic 3" & "4. Heres the 4" heres the 3"

Color is 4 drops of LC Chartreuse Dye(bleeding) and 2 drops X2 Green Chartreuse. Green, Black, Silver flake to taste. 

The LC chartreuse is really transparent which is awesome. Downside is the bleeding..

I second the hard plastic action. I switched to it since I only fish in the salt and I really haven't seen any loss in action because the tails of the molds I use are either thin or narrow.  But the body can take a beating that I wasn't getting with medium plastic. But different strokes for different folks when it comes to how they want that bait to dance. But im very happy with the hard plastic

Ma and I have had to work three days this week at the antique business and Monday and today I took time to toss a 3" Mo's in the Mississippi River. Lots of current and higher than normal water but I can't complain. I found some small sauger hanging out in a little scour behind a mooring piling in about 12 feet of water and they sure liked chewing on a firecracker/chartreuse tailed  bait both days right after getting the banking done. The rod is still in the van since we work again tomorrow and I don't plan on doing anything different after the bank.
