Thread: First post bait pic

Hello to all. This is my first post. I was told about this site from Rick @ Jacobs baits. I see that you all really love to think out of the box. Here is a pic of a new mold( at least to me) I got today. I emailed Rick and asked if he had heard of people using a two color injector on his molds. He said he had not. I have a customer that wanted this style baits in two colors. I was amaized that it worked so well right at the get go. I did have to use his adapter to inject but it worked well. Three colors to come next. Frank

they look fantastic. Frank and I do use 2 injector with Jacob's molds. I've told Rick about this before but they do work good with his molds. We do have the exact same mold as you. They look fantastic. I love the color combination you do good work. Hope to see more pictures in the future I'll have to watch out for you. You be taken all my buddies away but you do have fantastic looking stuff there. Keep up the good work.

looks great, glad to see another bait maker on board with us. I might have to go ahead and do the two color injector. I make mine the hard way. I was trying to save a little money but I may take the plunge befoe long.

Welcome aboard, that is a killer looking bait.

Frank is that motor oil on the back of the bait.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
The color on the back is actually watermelon brown w/red&gold flake. This color is real decieving. Frank

Here is the silvery blue back along with others I worked on today. Frank

good-looking plastic baits Frank you must've bought every one of Rick's molds I know I got addicted to him also, but I do see some strange looking ones are those from Bass tackle.

The silvery back is two drops of mf blue added to the pearl white from the bottom. Not much magic there. Snake yes I do have alot of Ricks molds but I have been dealing with Basstackle for awhile. The top right is a 1 3/4" paddle tail grub. Not on his site and very hard to shoot without bubbles. The reason it is not on there. This may sound a little odd but most of my small molds are actually used for surf perch. I live about 50 miles from the ocean and there is where most of these are used. So my colors might be a little differant but now you know why. Frank
