Please post your pours. You and I might swap some lures we've made from molds.

I like the idea of swaping baits

Just got the mold today & shot it twice to try it out. I layed a garland baby shad beside it for comparison & i like it. Maybe after getting the wife home next week from a rehab facility after a back surgery that went haywire I can try to make some stuff up hopefully. She hasn't been home since May 15th & still got a ways to go to get back to normal. On a good note though at the rate i'm catching them now me being a total newby i shouldn't have to spend to much time making them & they sure should last a while so she'll get plenty of qttewntion when she needs it.

Hope all goes well with the first lady.

Lures last for many fish and a dozen will last all year except for the ones that are thin-tailed that get bit off - like the two designs I used yesterday that at least they caught over 20 fish plus a 3lb bass to boot! Ahhh, so nice catching fish on lures you've made....

That is exactly why I started tying jigs and making my own soft plastic lures. I love that feeling.

Couldn't agree more & i think most those do it will too.

Mini years ago when I started tying my own jigs If the age of a bob 14 I caught my first fish on them ever since then I’ve been making my own plastic Baits in tying jigs i’ll be 76 in the spring.

That’s awesome! Within the last several years I have started tying my own jigs. It’s a wonderful hobby and satisfaction when you catch on baits you made. Wish I had started when I was young.
