Title: Stepping up the look on Blade baits
Post by: 21XDC on October 24, 2014, 05:59:33 AM
I just machined two molds to make 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, and 1 oz Minnow head blades... I'm not sure they will work yet, But I hope to find out soon.  ;D

What did you mean by "Very cool Triton"?

I just melted down 300 of my older blades to make these... I still have a few 100 left to melt down.  :o

My mind put a "Triton" in front of the "21X" portion of your name.

What I meant to say was, Very cool 21X.
