WTT wake minnow

[Guest]

I've had all kinds of trouble trying to modify a Bomber Long A or Redfin to wake just right.

Would anybody like to trade a good wake minnow for custom painted lures?

I can paint pretty much anything & many of the members here can vouch for my work.

I also have a few brand new Duo Realis Spy Baits that can be traded.

thanks

Well, I just got off the phone with Brians Bee's.

Super nice guy, answered all my questions & got me pointed in the right direction.

I decided to fork over the money for a Superman model in the bone color.

Mark up at sportsman factory outlet in springfield knows a guy that will tune a redfin for 10 bucks the guy wont reveal how he tweeks them but Mark says they work excellent after he's done with them.

The Brian's Bee's "Superman" came in the mail today.

It's a large piece of balsa wood. Appears way over 1/2oz to me.

If it wakes & catches kicker bass, I will be super happy.

Looks just like the Buckeye lures Wake Up bait.

Have you thrown the wake up? they do look very similar

[Sore Thumbs]

Yes. I have. They are awesome.

The new Rapala BX Wake is great out of the box

Maybe I got a bad one. I thought mine sucked. It took way too much effort and way too slow a speed to keep it on the surface and throwing a Vee. I'll give it another try.

Too slow? Are you burnin the Redfin? At that point you might as well get a sebile or a wake crank.

I slow roll mine with a few pops of the rod tip occasionally, it looks like a struggling baitfish scattering on the surface when i do that, and can usually produce a strike from a follower.
