    Default Open face mold.


    We got a two cavity open face mold along with an order of another mold and we've been messing with it I kind of like the ideal and it is a lot of fun but very time consuming I enclosed a picture of a worm 3.6 inches we're just working with different color combinations and different things we can do with it I will be ordering more open face molds in the future for salt water. Definitely would catch those big Texas CRAPPIES.

    Gonna be a great sea bass color too! I can't wait to start catching some of those big boys in the spring.

    I was gonna ask if it was open pour, but this answered my question.

    How big of a plastic do you guys use salt water? I know I sent you pretty small ones but the 3.6 worm should be good..

    Caught 100 plus bass and a dozen kelp greenling on the 2 inch gulp sandworms. Buddy caught some bigger ones on a 2 inch gulp ripple shad just fewer.

    I'm gonna try the ones from you without scent, then I'm gonna put a small sponge on them with the gulp scent on them to see just how much difference it makes.

    When we get something to hit the 3.6 inch worms it won't be a baby!!

    Well, you have some more coming of the worms. I gotta get out and I wanna make you up a few more different colors of odds and ends to try out if you can when you get out to do some fishing and catch some of those monster fish post a couple of pictures.

    Here are a few more I did today on the worms. These are hand poor so they're a little bit rough looking they look a lot better in your hand I kinda like doing this it's definitely different from injection molding I plan on getting a few more open face molds.

    Those are really nice. Glad you are having fun with them. Open pour looks like a lot of fun and opens up a lot for specialty color combinations.

    Try something like this in that worm, will definitely be a challenge.

    I don’t think that color combination would be a problem. See what we can do.

    Just giving you some ideas for the future. Have seen custom pours of kelp greenling and other baits for lingcod and other big predators sell for $15 to $50, even saw a couple that were $250 each and were the size of a 12 inch crappie.
