  1. Hey guys, thanks for the advise man, will defenitly try what you recomended, any particular brand you guys would prefer using?
  2. Hi Guys This might be stupid question to some, but what size trebles would you use on a 7inch Glide Bait and a 10inch Glide Bait? Im still new to making swimbaits so I thought I would ask for some advise.
  3. Thanks for the advice guys! Seems like a ball ache to make! Roger Linnell that looks very cool man, would love to see how that mold looks on the inside!
  4. Hi guys I wanted to find out if there is already a thread on this or if you guys could help me out with some advise. I got asked the question by a friend of mine, he wants me to make a mold for him for a certain tube bait, now give me any other plastic to make a mold of and I can do it, but I have no idea how to make a tube bait mold, how would I get it to be hollow inside? Any advise guys or maybe point me in the right direction?
  5. What are the legs made of on that frog? Is it the same foam?
  6. I would also love to know. Im sure you could.
  7. Anglinarcher, I defenitly get what you talking about, and thats someting that was on my mind, I will work on that as I have enough material to work with still, thanks for the great advise man.
  8. Hi Landry, thanks for your comment, sorry ffor the pictures, yyou cant really see the full shape and profile, but I have tappered the belly part like any traditional bait, you just cant see it from the angles I took the photo, but I get what you saying it does look odd shaped but, once Im done I will post more pics so you guys can see, but thanks so much for the advise!
  9. Thanks for all the advise guys, will definitely take it all in, but will test it first then make changes! Thanks so much
  10. Thanks Slammingjack,I made a slight change to the tail, think it will only benefit the action even more,will upload some pics!
  11. Thanks a lot man, what would your suggestion be to sort this problem out Anglinarcher? As this is my first attempt, and I'm still new to this,so any advice will be truly welcome.
  12. Nice Ive watched this video, starting making my own swimbaits and I really enjoyed your video!!
  13. Hi Guys I hope you all well? Ive started making this master for a soft plastic swimbait, bare in mind its not finished yet and it still needs details etc. I just wanted everyones opinion, and you guys can be brutally honest too, constructive critisism is welcome! It is going to be between 7-8 inches in length.
  14. Hi Guys Dont know if this has been posted before, but because I live in South Africa its difficult to find some additives for Plastisol. I am looking for a substitute Pearl additive that I can use to add to my hot Plastisol, as there is nothing currently available in the country. What is there that I can use instead of the real stuff that you guys might use?
  15. Hi basst, hope you willing to share Im also from SA, sitting with the same problem of not enough colours available, would you mind telling me how I can get in contact with that local supplier of the plastic colouring that you found? Would really appreciate it.
  16. Hi Guys, anyone know of any sites that sell Saltwater Hard Bait Blanks?
  17. Howzit Jig Man, thanks for that, thats what I thought but wasnt too sure. But Ill play around with it.
  18. Hi Guys I hope you all well? First of all Im new to the Forum, and I just want to say great forum!! I am from South Africa and i currently make hand crafted custom jigs. Now Ive recently purchased all the stuff to make soft plastics so that I can make matching trailers for my jigs. Now Ive got one important question. If I have an open pour mold, like for a Fluke or Jerkbait, how do I go about getting a two tone colour fluke? Like for example your Zoom Baby Bass fluke, just as an example. How would I pour the two colours? It would be a hand pour mold.
