Tuning glide baits.

Post by Real Pudd legend » Tue Dec 30, 2014 11:01 am

Wondering if anyone has a tip to make the glide bait swim wider than stock? Thinking about getting a Gan Craft 230 jointed claw.

More moderate tapered rod, with thinner line will help the bait move more freely.

With the Gancrafts, you can shave the joint on the front part of the bait a little to make it a little wider. There are a few how to videos out there.
