I used to fish alot with dip baits but the price of the lures were killing my wallet. That and they were always the same size and clumsy especially when the channel cats would bite short so I started looking into making my own. at first I would by the bass fishing fry worms the 5″ ones were about the same size as the commercial style lures and I was lucky to find 3.5″ finese style fry worms and made them out of these bass lures saved a bunch of money and I could use smaller treble hooks when the fish were biting short. Today I have wooden molds that I hand carved and melt down old plastic bass worms I find on the bank while I’m fishing and make them this way my favorite ones to use are so small a size 10 treble will clear the treble hook. Now days I hardly fish with dip baits simply because i finally after many experiments have gotten my own punch bait perfected. I was reading on the web site about the hook size to use and I rarely use anything larger than a size 8. My go to size is normally size10 but when I can find them I love using size 12 or 14 and have brought in several channels weighing more than 5lbs. Guess it’s just personal preference. If u like using dip try making your own out of the bass fry worms will save u lots of money.
