    how to make sand eel swim baits from polymer claylink to blog http://homeluremaking.blogspot.com/


    Thought I'd share this, haven't made them myself but they look decent and they work, although a little fiddly to make.

        Ordered it on eBay cast well on a light rod thought they might be good for bass in shallow water save my good plugs made a few colours I put the eyes in before I heated the clay only heated them for a couple of minutes
