Well heres my newest creation in the hand pour addiction that I've gotten. I know looks don't really matter if they don't catch but I've actually had good luck with them so far here in east Texas. I'm just looking for input on this to decide if I want to get crazy and have aluminum molds made for them.

I've seen what it takes to create alum molds (multi group baits) Design, programming and machining can be expensive. Then you have to buy or buy time on a thermal hydrolic injection machine... You can use a hand pressure or air driven injector too once the plastic is hot enough..
Nice looking baits, good luck..

Thanks everyone. Redskeeter I have a cousin in the Houston area that teaches machining at a local college so he is going to do all the cnc work for me and all I have to do is buy the aluminum. I think it's a win win. Now if I can just get some of these out and about I'll feel better. That being said anyone fishing the east Texas lakes don't be surprised if you find a bag of em on your boat trailer. Lol
