    Default Injector Question


    Ok, so I'm getting into the soft plastic lure making and have a question or two.
    1. My plan is to make for me, not to get to making them for money.
    2. Fishing for Crappie, I plan on 2" and under sized baits and molds of no more than 10-12 cavities.
    Would an injector of 4oz be enough for one shot per mold doing a single color, or would I need a larger capacity injector. I'm starting with a 2" carrot stick and plan on adding the 1.75", and 2" stinger tail shad body molds.
    Thank you and all help would be appreciated. Eric, AKA, "jamesdean"

    Thank you for the reply Snake River. Looking at the Standard Capacity (4oz) from Jacobs. It has the locking pin on the tip...

    For reference I have the 3 ounce bass tackle injector and I can fill two mo magic 12 cavity molds and one 8 cavity 2.5” grub mold with one full shot, so yes you’ll be more than adequate
