Running Ape Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 If you have inexperienced relatives to take fishing dragging a Hurley squid slowly behind a boat while they twitch the rod. Idiot proof (except when my brother in law broke a $200 st croix rod, my fault for handing it to him) and they feel a strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show someone where to go striped bass fishing and you'll have a desperate report chaser with loose lips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casting.... 1st banks I made.  Had a pile of zinc'd alloy from duck decoy anchors. Hated to throw it away. So I turned em into sinkers. 1/8- 1 1/2oz.  Found a pyramid mold on ebay. 2 3 & 4oz.  Its a bit loose so I got alot of flashing to trim. Makes a great looking sinker but the zinc alloy is a bitch to cut! Hard as a rock. I only have a few more lbs to use up then I'll goto softer lead.   Also bought jig molds. 3/8 to 4oz. Small (up to 1oz) are ball. 1oz to 4oz are bullet.    Made a bunch of wire hangers for the pyramid sinkers. Had a bunch wire for drop ceilings that I had little use for.  Also finished my casting eggs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebay. Those are 2in x 1 3/8in. Weigh just about 1oz. It came out to a buck & change per egg. I want one thats bigger but can't find one for a decent price.   Everything I see is nearly 5 an egg. I can buy a completed one for 8. Just doesn't seem worth it.   So I may see how much lead these smaller ones will hold and try loading one.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
