Do-It WMF-6-A (Weedless NED Mold). Hooks other than Victory 10777?
ute replied to RobTube's topic in Wire Baits
VMC makes one. Check Captain Hooks -
Thank you!

Does anyone have a good source for Bucktails that they are willing to share?

Depending on which 4" Grub mold it is it could have been by Chris at Ultra Molds. It should have a model identification on the mold. I have 5 of the 4" Curly Tails that I bought from Dave and Ultra Molds is still producing this mold.

The best that I can remember, back in the day when I bought my tube molds, they were about $65.00 to $85.00 each, depending on the size. Now they are $108.50 to 129.50 ,depending on the size, for the same molds.
-
The first that I can remember was Gene LaRue, that was also in the late 70s or early 80s.

I talked to them about a month ago. The site went down and they decided not to put it back up. They are still in business, you can give them a call and they will take your order over the phone.

I have the mold. It is a good, large grub and it shoots perfect.
-
Not a problem, actually UPS just brought the item that I have been waiting on! I'll back to injecting tomorrow.
-
Yes, I have Rupert's cell #, he hasn't returned my calls, either.
-
Has anyone been able to contact Ultra Molds lately? I have been leaving messages for about 3 weeks and no one has returned my calls.

You might check the Eagle Claw L3052.
-
I am still using one that I'm pretty sure Kajan would be familiar with!

This is the best way that I have found. Put them in a plastic sandwich bag and vigorously rub them between your hands. This will create static electricity that will cause the strands to seperate.
-
The only Matzuo that you will find are close outs, they are no longer in business. In my opinion the Eagle Claw Li'l Nasty is a much better hook.

Ultramolds has a 4" mold that will shoot a tube with about a 5/8" solid nose.
-
Try WTP, they offer a lot of sizes and styles of eyes. You can Google them.
-
You might check with Ultramolds. They were working one a while back.

The molds that Bear sold were made by Ultramold. They are available on their web-site. Do-It and Enforcer Molds also have splined molds. I am only familiar with the Ultramold tube molds, I have about 25 of them and they are very good molds.

Some dyes, especially chartreuse, will fade in sun light.
-
Shorty's has them, $30.00 per thousand, plus FET.

Proberos Fishing. He is in China but they are reliable and the shipping is pretty fast. They also have an Ebay store. I bought 100 of the wires from them, the wires are about an inch longer than VMC, maybe not quiet as heavy, but they worked fine for me.

I agree, the gate is the area where the plastic first enters the bait cavity. It has been my experience over the past 15 years of injecting that if it is a dent problem it is because the gates are too small, if it is a filling problem it is usually venting. I am not saying that temperature or clamp pressure can't play a part, but I feel if they do it is usually because of design to start with.
-
I doubt that most of the folks that have only been injecting plastic for a few years are aware that Dave is one of the early driving forces that has made injecting what it is today. God bless him and his family.

I agree!
