    Here is what I did. http://www.crappie.com/crappie/diy-s...old-today.html. I am now looking for a manufactured mold I can just hand pour. Will check out mud hole tackle on Monday.

    Post what grub you're talking about - you'd be surprised someone may already be making it here on the board.

    It is by far cheaper just to buy it already made, unless you are just wanting to tinker. What grub are you wanting to make? Does it have a flat side, if so this would be a single piece of cake mold. If it has rounded sides this would be a 2 part mold. Let us know which direction we can point you.
