Thread: 1/24th oz jighead mold

They have a 1/32 and 1/24th oz combined mold with wire keeper but it takes Owner hooks. Round Head Jig - Sz: 1/32, 1/24 - Hk: 570 or 575 - Collar: Wire Holder

or check Jacobs baits

I have the Do-It 1/32-1/24 mold. I hve cast Matzuos, standard 570's, the Lil Nastys and Mustads in the mold without issue. The only hook problem I have encountered was up sizing the hook sizes....the 1/32 is listed as 6 or 4, but the 4 can be a pain. The mold casts beautiful jigs with and without the wires. Check Barlows or Nettcraft or Zeiners for the mold.

Glad to hear that on the hooks - have thought about that mold!!

Fatman...

Once in a great while I like a #2 hook cast inside 1/32 head. The hook literally weighs more than the lead I think. I use this jig for larger plastics using soft plastic, which tends to be neutrally buoyant or floatable. The little extra weight helps to slowly sink these plastics while offering more hook at the fish end of things. I have a couple older collar-less molds altered to accept the #2 hooks for when I want to mold them. Actually these two altered molds will put the head on a #1 hook. I prefer to fish as light as I can with as large as I can, meaning I don't like much weight [jig] but I like size [plastic]. Its a balancing act.

Many of the better walleye anglers in this region who fish the Mississippi River the year round are beginning to subscribe to the same idea by using much lighter jigs with plastics on lines at 4 to 6 pounds. I've used this approach to my crappies for about 10 years now and in the last 5 years have seen an increase from walleye buddies wanting the larger hooks in almost nothing sizes of jigs.

Have the do-it and jacobs are well made molds.The jacobs accepts a swivel and blade.Well made mold pours great. For tying or plastic's.Works well under a float.Make the 1/24 oz jigheads for a Trout fishing Guide on the White River.Said he wanted to go crappie fishing.He was using the 1/24 oz jighead. Gave me a Crappie lesson I will not forget. Great jighead for crappie,Bream or trout.
