For me it is wholly dependent on what type of lure we're talking about. Worms, fluke, stick baits, swimbaits- laminate craws and creatures-swirl with some exceptions for colors that are predicated by being "natural" with a lighter belly and darker top AND will be presented to the fish with that orientation in mind.1 point

I like the twisted eye especially if I am fishing for northern pike. For bass I use the open "R". You can use a rubber skirt collar over the "R" to keep the line tie from moving up.1 point

You can purchase silicone for making molds. Lots of tutorials on doing this on YouTube. But for the cost Do-it molds are well worth the money. Better quality, safer, will last a lifetime. If this is a one-off custom mold then making your own for prototyping might be all right. But for any sort of production work having an aluminum mold is just a no-brainer1 point

Yes. I've made them out of wood, plaster of Paris (POP), hardware store silicon, and more recently out of Durham's Water Putty (DWP). Each offers pros and cons. I also bought a Do-It aluminum jig mold and if you're doing multiple pours then this is the way to go as the investment will save you lots of time and frustration. If you're only doing a few jigs at at time then a home made mold will be ok.1 point
