FYI if you search facebook marketplace for "Fishing Tackle Hobby Business", I'm trying to finally clear house and sell my old Ledge Runner Bait hand poured plastic business, all original carved designs in mold boxes to create RTV molds, all the RTV molds, supplies and poured and bagged plastic ready to sell and at a bargain price. Rediculous low $2500 price, especially considering the plastic poured and bagged is worth half that price retail.

I've been using them with great success in boulder fields on Block and my hometown Newport. I'm sure you'll have windows of opportunity to use them on Cutty. I've written a few pieces about soft plastic paddletails since I started using them. Still learning when, where, and how.

Yes, originally designed by Florida fishermen. I also started using Gravity tails last season which are different... but still effective. Like all plastic lures soft plastics come in different formulas which will work differently. Different shapes, jig heads, and plastic formulas affect sink rates. I'm finding this is the critical element in boulder field use. Every boulder field is different so there is a substantial learning curve for correct combination to use in different areas. But this is what I love - always keep learning. |
