salokcinnodrog Posted March 7, 2006 Report Posted March 7, 2006 Buzzbomb, Good to see innovation has not been lost Any bottle will do. I use to use Shampoo Bottles or Washing Up Liquid Bottles and cut the top off. Cut a piece of Foam or Polystyrene to the inside diameter of the Bottle and push it to the Bottom. At the top I would then drill 3 equidistant holes and using 15kg Amnesia, crimp 3 lengths through the Holes. Tie a swivel to the 3 lengths and then cover with Silicone Rig Tubing for tidiness. Quote
coops_northants Posted March 7, 2006 Report Posted March 7, 2006 My first spod was a litl bottle and an old Pike bung superglued in. Use a hot skewer to amke 4 holes in the top to take the line to a swivel and made a few holes in the body to empty the water on the retrieve..... it done the business but went off course quite easy Still have it now and it must be 6-7 years old. Dont use it any more though;) Quote
