Zero Buoyancy Crank Baits

Available to Subscribers May, 2008

(ZBs) ZERO BUOYANCY, Super Lures: Loosly defined; means that an object, or mass weighs exactly the same as the amount of water it displaces. Said differently; if your fishing lure weighs the same as the water it displaces; it will not float on the surface, or sink because of it’s weight. It can sit still, suspended in mid-water. I don’t know about you; but, this sounds a lot like a live fish (preditor food source) to me.

Turn an ordinary can crusher, and empty calking tube into a mold injection pump. You just saved 1,000s of $$$ in equipment cost.
