Making bar pirks

[Alan Taylor]

You dont really need professional style moulds,

 

 

Besides the cod won't know the difference.

And there was me thinking the target species was MACKEREL with the odd Bass as a bonus, or was that another topic :confused: :confused:

Apologies, long day and I lost the thread Alan. Say 'pirk' I automatically think 'cod'

 

By the same token pirks wouldnt be my first choice for mackerel or bass.

Why chrome?

1/2ins - 3/4ins stainless bar cut at 60 degrees, drilled at both ends for the split rings will make a lovely wobbly pirk for casting?

Can`t find small lengths of stainless bar?

Cue Norrie.

No problem

Funny you should say about pirks not being first choice for Bass, they seem to be the first and second choice over here.

Fixed spool reel, braid and a light rod, drop down to the wreck and wind up 20 turns then back down again. We don't have the reefs here and no one fishes the drop off's on sand banks, yet

We don't get Bass up here so I mentioned Cod to represent the big fish sitting under the Mackeral which I would guess is the basic idea.
