Thread: Speaking of molds lol

Just got the Fat Guys Fishing 1.5 BA mold in the mail today. I needed err wanted it earlier in the summer but it is better late than never.

I really like my 2 incher. I made a buddy 60 monkey milk with chartruese tails in a few minutes the other day.

If you guys do not know they are making that stinger with the slide so you can shoot the tail push the slide down and shoot the body. I ordered a 20 cavity in a different stingers style like they have similar to a Bobby Garland with a built-in slide no I haven’t got it yet.

Yep they just introduced their slide system. I only pour for myself so cutting the tails off the body and reinserting the body back into the mold is no big deal. It is certainly a time saver for those who sale baits. I have my eye on another mold so I will wait for his next sale.

I talk to them on the phone they called me and asked me a question I told him why don’t they make a slide for like a Laminate instead of using the dual injector so you may see that in the future from them.

I haven't looked but do they not have a tail mold that works with the mold you have? To me that's the best benefit of the 2' stinger tail shad. I made some baits the other day with a light green pumpkin back & a monkey milk belly. Some of them i put a chartreuse tail on & they work great. I've put different colored tails on several bunches of baits & it makes very easy to do.

They should give you half the credit for the idea, naming rights, and half the profits from your idea.

Just my opinion. Fair is Fair.

I will send you a mold free also. You just have to pay the shipping. Never say never Fatman! Snake River will talk you into it just as he talked me into making soft plastic lures. Making soft plastics for friends has been the best 15 + years of my life. Now I am hand tying a ton of worms for youth groups and seniors like me who love to fish for panfish but don't want the hassle of trying to keep redworms alive and the fish from grabbing them off the hook. One of my church members asked me to try and make them some indestructible redworms and I got hooked into making Meal worms, Wax worms, Maggots and Red worms. i have learned to never say never Fatman. You will soon be making your own soft plastics. The link I posted is to my Red Worms as an example of how quickly you can get hooked.
