Loading the Redfin, Step By Step

[late-start]

well written explanation; thanks.

My technique is clearly not as fancy but gets the job done and the bass usually don't seem to care.

1) using pliers I heat up a sewing needle and make a small hole off center near head
2) Using a 10cc syringe with 18-20 gauge needle I load in H20
3) I then use the heated sewing needle to melt the hole close; If I have any concern I just add a touch of epoxy.

There is a video of McKenna out there (?youtube) that shows something similar.

I've been using a heated paper clip personally, just in case you don't want to raid your wife's sewing kit ... especially since I have already probably stolen every rubbermaid food storage container she has ever owned....

Switched from loading them to water to shot. There are benefits to both. I have a few with just a flag on the back, a few with trebles on on the back, but most with two split rings and a dressed siwash.

Twitch, retrieve, stop, SMASH. It is like clockwork with these puppies.

I would say more than half of my fish caught this season came on redfins, probably the same ratio for Chef too, good post.
