View Full Version : Glitter for soft plastics


bass or bass?

I've noticed that the soft plastics with glitter in them really catch and reflect light, so I decided to improve on them. I bought a bottle of silver glitter from a craft store and poured it into a zip lock bag. When I want some extra flash, I place a soft bait in the bag and shake it around to coat it with glitter, then cast it to the target. When the bait hits the water, most of the glitter comes off, disperses, and slowly sinks, mimicking a bait fish that has been hit by a predator. If there's a bass, striper, or other predator in the area of the cast, they have to nail this wounded bait! This technique is awesome when casting to striper or bass boils!;)
