I tried them for the first time last year and loved them. Some of the plastics are perfect finesse baits.

I use them alot and i love them. The action is second to none in my opinion. And they can be made to custom order so any color or combination can just about be made.

Guys I was on there site, a hole lot of stuff way confusing. What would you buy for gills [color and size] Thanks ART I saw the pro pack but thought I'd never use half of it!!

just a few that I have used for gills are the Polli, Wormi, Mousi, and Guppi...I have them in white, pink and chartreuse....they all work at different times

never used them, but i am a first time buyer this year, the guy is super friendly and the product looks top notch

Ive used them for 3 seasons and they are the best ice plastics, bar none. For Gills you will want to try the Buggi, The Polli and the Maki's...all in white, purple/violet, pink, rootbeer, and red. Those are my five most used colors.

I've been using ISG and Atom plastics and have been happy. I'll have to look up Maki and give them a try this year. Have to see how they compare in price and durability after they have been chomped on by hungry gills! Alot of happy customers the way it sounds. Fin

I placed an order last weekend, have yet to receive them yet, but am very excited to see them. I ordered a few mousies, pollis, guppi, and spikes, mostly white for me as I fish stained water most of the time, I think they are more visable. Anyway, can't wait to get em'. Smitty

They are they most durable plastic I have found . Just be sure to double hook them , put the hook through upside down of normal position then turn and go back through .

Basicly hold plastic the way you want it presented , turn you jig upside down , pass it through the plastic , rotate back to normal presentation and pass the hook back through the plastic .

The lightest biting gills cant pull it off withought getting hooked.

Hands down maki is the best around .

Best plastics I've used! I think he even sent me a couple plastics extra to try out... Great guy!

To add to my earlier post, I can't wait to meet him at the Syracuse Ice Show

icejunky · « **Reply #14 on:** Nov 08, 2009, 08:44 PM »

Maki is another company I'm surprised does nit sponsor this site, as a smaller maker he could really get his product out there, As far as I can tell they are top kotch products

I placed an order yesterday. If this 70 degree weather ever goes away I'll get to see if plastics are a gimmick or the real thing. The more weapons a person has at his disposal the better.

kramdawg · « **Reply #16 on:** Nov 09, 2009, 08:54 PM »

These plastics are the best I've used and the action is awesome. Just ordered $160 more worth of stuff for the up coming ice season. I now have every style of plastic he has along with some that aren't on the sight, and just about every color you could think of. The two off the wall colors that work well for me are lavender and peach. I just caught a bunch of nice crappies on redstone using mishi's and draggi's while fishing the open water for the last time. I use these plastics year around and they produce fish. Can't go wrong with these plastics, and I would have to say my go to plastic would be the maki in any color!!!

I just recieved my order....they look fantastic! Can't wait to try them. I might try them this weekend at our local lake with my new homemade ice jigs. I know it's not ice, but maybe I can get some cold weather gills/crappies. Smitty

Tie on a jig and a plastic, get a 5 gallon pail of water...try them out so you can see them in action---sounds silly but its a great way to hone your presentations

panfishman13 · « **Reply #21 on:** Nov 21, 2009, 10:57 PM »

i think i'm gonna order the pro pack or whatever it's called, as well as a bunch of my own designs i've been thinkin' up.
