little dink
« on: 02/24/15 18:32 UTC »
I made a few of these to show someone at another site but I'll give ya'll a peek at them too.



These guys are just slightly more than 3/4" in length. They are the product of shooting a tail mold in chartreuse and then trimming them back so the purple firecracker could finish the body. The red eyes and clear dip have been added to fire things up some and do a good job of it. I think I have posted pictures of these little dinks before but right now totally not sure. 3/4" of an inch in length, they fish great on a 1/64 head or a 1/32 cast on a #8 hook. Sunfish and crappies tear these guys up, but while fishing docks in late fall two years ago a walleye just shy of 10 pounds grabbed one similar in color to these shown proving the point that big things can come in small packages.

Cool little nibbles!  What tail mold if this you speak of?  You have my interest piqued.
