    Default soft plastic jig molds


    I have a friend with a cnc that recently has been asking me about the crappie molds I have made and how they work. He is short on work right now and playing with the idea of making some molds and trying to sell them. kinda wondering if there are certain types of jigs or a lack of molds available that u would like to see to advise him on making

    Molds that are cut for lamenting via a laminate plate plus a tail mold that produces 3-4 times the numher of tails that the mold has for bodies would be huge, Many mold producers like Do-IT will not listen to customers request for tail molds. Stingers in 3"-4" with fat bodies would be a good start. Tails pointed then another mold set with a perpendicular paddle tip to cause vibration fro cast and drag for crappie. My 2 cents worth.

    Stinger style is big in Ohio. Very hard to find stinger style baits in smaller size. Round body and flat tails, 2 to 3 inch.

    Stinger style baits must be why the Popeye Jigs work so well, I mean when we tie a popeye jig the head is the largest part and once that Hackle tail gets wet and you lift it out of the water, it kind of just looks like a stick, lol! However my first try with one of that kind of jig was really something! That experience has taught me some things that relieved my worries about that style being very good!
