When ordering molds from the lurecraft catalog a lot of the molds seem to be "the mold." I have ordered some molds, and I'm sure that some can vouch for this one, some molds look really good in the catalog, and when you get them home and fire up the microwave, pour, and they dont turn out to your expectations. Remember when ordering molds the length of the whole worm, or bait that you order might not be the true size, it also states this in the catalog. The mold size is measured from end to end. You might think you are ordering a 6" curl tail worm, but actually by the time you pour it and stretch it out it might be eight inches. If you have doubts you can call Dave at Lurecraft and he can tell you the actual size. By calling you can save yourself some dissapointment when the mold arrives. Dont purchase hardener unless you plan on pouring some bigger swimbaits or saltwater baits. Good luck
