  6. can't wait to use this guy...
  7. Thanks mang.... I design this one myself, the warts were hard to do but worked out in the end...
  8. That hook in the picture, thats what I`m going to try but maybe a little more of a kink
  9. I figured it had to be something to do with the hook not having a bend in it, the jigs I normally pour all have bends in them. This mould is custom made and new to me and I`ve never poured over a straight shank hook. One of the stores I supply custom lures and jigs to sells a tonne of the ripper jigs and asked me to start making them for him . I thought I`d give it a go. Thanks sooooooo much guys, I can always rely on the people on this website for advice.
  10. Thanks so much guys, you guys really helped. I'm going to try putting a kink in the hook tomorrow and I'll let you know how it goes....
  11. The mold is a custom mold my friend made for this specific jig. Shouldn't the lead just hold the hook in place?
  12. Im using a 2/0 eagle claw jig hook but i straighten the hook so the eye is at the top of the jig instead of the side. thats why its called the riipen jig, its a big hit around here.
  13. Its called a ripping jig mold. The hook fits perfectly in place, its just loose enough that i can spin it within the lead head. The ones I normally make are regular jigs and the bend in the top of the hook prevents the hook from spinning or moving at all
  14. Im pouring a jig where the hook is straight, there is no bend on the top of the hook. I pour the lead in the mould and everything go's as planned BUT because the hook is perfectly striaght within the lead head, it spins. I shouldn't be able to spin the hook within the lead head, it should be solid. any help would be appreciated
  15. Its my Ghost Craw. I made it for a customer who wanted a crawdad design in black and white. He tell's me he catches alot of walleye and bass on it especially before dark.
