Watch out Gary Yamamoto

I decided I would do something useful this winter and pour my own Senko's. I finally got all my supplies in and the shop set-up with everything I needed and tonight was my first pour. My first bait looked good but it had air pockets inside.
I then figured out the technique I needed and got my color right for some Black with Red Fleck.
I then switched to black with blue fleck and managed to get a few good pours.
I tested these out in a pail of water and I compared them with some of the baits on the market and I have the same action as a Yum Dinger and a Right Bite Cinko. I would like to get the same fall rate as a tiki-stik so I have to adjust my salt ratio to get it just right. It's actually real easy to do after a few test runs and I now have something to look forward to this winter
( As you can tell I really really really hate ice fishing
