Material for Fish Decoys
 
Looking to make some sacaulait decoys to put around some docks while night fishing. What is best material to use where paint will hold and will not float?

I soak large shad in rubbing alcohol to preserve them and then dry them and airbrush with model paint with the scales on. If they float I cut a slit in the belly and shove in an old spark plug and superglue the slit. Hope this works out for you. If you don't catch any sacs...DON'T eat the decoys...unless you preserve them with Everclear.

You should put a least 3 Roto sac decoys in your spread. I think ****'s has dem. Motion attracts at night! Don't forget to paint face!....Glow from lights off skin scares them....good luck!

Get some of the green underwater lights, and sink anything that will throw a shadow around the lights. After every 37 white bass you'll catch a sac.

Whaaaaaat?

Take a mojo vortex and turn it upside down and attach Alabama rigs to the ends. It creates a whirlpool and sucks the fish in.

Man I just use my 12volt under water light that used shiners as decoys.
