  5. That there is a loaded question, to be honest the best plastic is the one you find works best with your methods I will give some of the feedback I've read and have experienced. Lurecraft is a good plastic in the finished product I had 5 gallons of medium and I liked it a lot the one drawback was it hard packed quite quickly, hardpacking is when the solids fall out of suspension and becoming a hard layer on the bottom of the bucket it can and does reincorporate but its a pain, with all respect I would call Kim and ask if that has been resolved as this was a few years ago and maybe the formula has changed. Calhoun has a smoke problem when heated its a fine line between bringing the plastic up to the right temp and smoking it also has an oily finish which some liked some don't. Chemionics I currently have 5 gallons of supersoft its good overall but I'm having a micro bubble issue, could that be atmospheric its possible and its not the end of the world the finished product is nice. Do-It has been having a yellowing problem and the price point is a little high for me but again contact Jerry to see if it's been reformulated and or corrected I know their aware of the problem. Ispikeit/lureworks by far has the most options the price point is good they are very friendly when contacted about product and did I mention the price point is good. The thing is I can't give you my personal experience as I've yet to try it, it's next on the list.

  6. Thanks river. I'll have to go shopping. I need lots of the Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails clear. Not only does it make a great top coat repair, but I add glitter to it and coat my powder coated jigs to get the glitter effect I want. And...I finally figure out why the women put it over colored polish. It is much harder than the colors, and protects them. Doh..he can be taught!!! For everyone here, do not fail to buy Sally Hansen "In the Spotlight" polish. It's clear with mylar bits. You will be amazed at how much flash it adds to crankbaits, but I use it a lot on blades. The flash on a rotating willow blade is unreal!

  7. I have had alot of people ask me how I am putting in these weedguards so hopefully this will put all the questions at rest. You can put wire weedguards in any mold. 1) you cut a weedguard insert so it is flush with the inside of the cavity 2) cut a slot in the weedguard insert for the wire weedguard. I use a dremel. 3) when you make your weedguards make sure that it hooks around the jig hook. Use wire of your own choice. 4) put it all together in the mold. So as you see you can put a wire weedguard in any mold that takes a fiber weedguard. Hope this helps.
