Made a two piece hand pour silicone mold for a stick bait I made from my youngest daughter's plastic bead collection

Bet that works

Interesting. good idea man, I made a mold from a big lizard I shot in the yard lol. Was messy but made easy mold with it out of plaster of paris.

Thanks. Wish I had better access to 3D printing and aluminum milling--there's definitely some limitations with clay models, silicone molds, and hand pouring

I've seen a good video of the guys from makelure.com do one from a big gizzard shad.

I think the key step was freezing it for 24H

Very nice job. I sure would love to have some 7" in those to try in Mexico. Guessing you only make the smaller size?

You read my mind, I'm in the process of making a longer prototype

Man that is alot of work to make that mold, pretty cool tho

Definitely a process. The 12-18 hrs you wait for the silicone to completely set does give you some time to go fishing

Made some zapata/421 laminate in the 5.1 length. The 7.2 are half way done with the 2 part silicone mold

Good idea, very creative. Be those would make a great carolina rig bait.

Thanks, will have to make some salt free for crig, maybe with some of the floating plastisol

The 5.1 work rigged multiple different ways



Made some 7.2 also

I bet Those would be great Carolina rigged

Would you be willing to trade some of the 5.1 plastic like the ones in the picture for a few custom painted LC cranks?

Absolutely, I sent you a pm

very interesting bait CCTX

very cool looking bait, great work!
