Has anybody used this site lure mold site?

Featured Replies

I've used them, and they are great. I got the stick mold. Be careful when pouring the mold can get warm.

This and Bob's Tackle Shack are the best places for molds.  You can't beat aluminum for molds. It produces the best looking bait out of all of the different mold materials.  Initial cost is pretty high, but it will last you forever.

I found this while catching up on my reading... it was on like page 84 of the fishing tackle page. That's what happens when you are home sick and have all day to pass!! ...lol

I think the credit goes to earthworm77, he was in that post several times:

"...Put it this way, a gallon of plastic can pour between 500 and 700 baits..."

It looks like it's well worth it to pour your own.  :)

Any questions about making your own molds or plastics in general, e-mail me. I tried to include all the steps in the articles, but there are always new things I discover by making more.

Aluminum molds are the way to go for lures that you want completely texured and round on all sides, but making your own for copies of beavers, grubs, jig trailers etc. come out fine and at a fraction of the cost. My craw chunk trailers are displayed here:

Note the small clear/pearl grub copies I made from a Power grub.

molds I made last month (chunk trailer shown on blog page):

Other than fishing, it's my second biggest hobby and what I'm able to spend more time doing, especially in winter.

M-F Manufacturing company also has a extensive collection of worm molds, and you get the same type of worm that you would get from using the aluminum molds.  Also I have found in a local craft store a hard plastic resign that will allow you to copy ANY worm out there.  The only trouble with the resign is keeping it cool while it's curing, if you dont, the mold will crack.

Does Del still have beavers I was on the site and did not see them?
