Good looking baits! What mold are those craws In the bottom pic? Do they have the swimming action of a rage craw?

I use MF regular and I love it

Yes it is a dark brown. The bottom is like and off white with look like a tiny little bit of pearl

Ok thanks I'll give it a try.

Yes als the pic u found is the 1 I'm trying to match. If u have any ideas on a recipe please let me know

What's the easiest why to post a pic? I don't have a computer only my cell phone

Ok thanks als I'll give that a try. On the gulp minnows the top looks like a brownish gray and the bottom looks like a grayish white. I'll have to do some messin around to see what I can come up with.

Does anybody have a good gulp minnow smelt recipe they would like to share? Thanks

Thanks for all the info guys very much appreciated. What is your heat source? I have a microwave right now. I've seen a lot of videos where guys are using electric skillets to keep cups warms after they get them to temp in the microwave. Anybody else had luck with that?

Ok thanks Travis. What type of rod do you use for dipping? What temp do you have your plastic at?

I want to try to make some 2.75" - 3" tubes. I wanted to try to dip them. What method would be the best? Does anybody have any of bojon's videos they would share? I can't get any of the 1's I found on here to work. What formula plastic would you recommend? I want to try and keep them as soft as possible

Just what I wanted to hear Wally!! Do you use the lam plate? What about the tail mold they have? I definitely want to make some green pumpkin with charturce tails do I need the tail mold to do that?

Has anybody used the bait junkys Ned bullet mold? If so how do you like the baits?

Thanks mark and les! I will definitely give them a call.

Thanks mark!! I'm just going to do it as a hobby but would like the best materials I can. What formula plastic would you recommend for the baits I listed that I would like to make?

Sounds good i appreciate als. Yes I would love to hear other people's opinions on their favorite brands.

Thanks for the info als. That's kind of what I was thinking but wanted to hear what others had to say. What brand of plastic, colorant, and glitter would you recommend? I was looking at the bass tackle injectors. I like the locking nozzle on them. Any reviews on them? I know it is going be very addicting but to be able to get colors and baits that I can't get anywhere else and catching fish on a bait that I made will be priceless.

Anybody have any recommendations??

Ok thanks for the info guys. My buddy does airbrushing mainly on vehicles and i was going to get him to paint some baits for me but I didn't want to have to buy all new paint for him if he could just use what he has.

Can you use automotive paint and clear coat for paint plastic crankbaits and jerkbaits? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks Scott

Hey guys I'm new to the site but I've been reading a lot on hear and have gained a lot of knowledge. Right now all I make is jigs but I'm about to dive into the soft plastic game. I'm looking to spend about $400 on equipment ( molds, plastic, glitter, coloring,etc ) I'm leaving the microwave and Pyrex out of that budget btw I want to spend the $400 on things I would have to order. Would you recommend buying a starter kit and more molds, coloring, glitter, etc. or buy everything individually? I'm open to open pour and injection. I would like to make 4" roboworm type baits, 3" & 4" stick baits, small swim baits (4" & under), a craw type jig trailer, and 2 3/4" & 3" tubes (dipped or injected) . Also which plastic would you recommend for these type baits? Any help is greatly appreciated Thanks Scott
