Rattles !!

HI, I just wanted to pass this along because it is something that has been very successful with me. These are Rattles i made up with 44 Mag shells and a few 30 cal. 3/8" stainless balls and Copper rivets. They are in 10" yo- zuri Bonita lures. Through the years as i was testing these the only ones that took fish were the ones i put the Rattles in.

Pic. 1 and 2 are the cases, some cut down some not. along with the ball Bearings and the copper rivets.

Pic. 3 is soldering the rivets on. A drop of oil inside to prevent corrosion . (Not enough hands to solder and take pics.

Pic. 4 is the same as 3 ??????? Duh

Pic. 5 is where you have to drill the hole. The ONLY place to drill. (Dont ask How I KNOW ) These plugs are through wired !! A simple 1/2" Brad point bit with a marked out stop Or Tape will do. Pop it into the hole and putty over. They will make so much noise you'd swear they would SCARE the fish. lol. I should have got a better pic. of the lures, they are WELL used and no those are NOT my teeth marks !!! Try it you'll like it !!
