Suggestions for a Senko style mold
underwatersniper replied to BuckeyeFishing's topic in Soft Plastics
I like the essential series from do-it molds. They shoot good and catch bass. They have 4,5 and 6" models https://www.barlowstackle.com/Do-It-Essentials-Injection-Worm-Molds-C374.aspx -
I do not own any that large but basstackle.com has several 4" and 5" models. strike kings website states the lobster is 4.5". Here is a 4"er that always caught my eye but I never pulled the trigger on it. The price is right at only $40 for a single cavity and $70 for double. They have a video showing its action as well. basstackle makes good quality molds. http://www.basstackle.com/product_p/705-1-1.htm

Bait PLastics Medium Baitjunkys Blend Plastisol
underwatersniper replied to Les Young's topic in Soft Plastics
I have no real complaints with the bait plastic products. However, I did notice that it separates a lot easier than the original bait junkies plastic. It literally start separating within hours. -

"Stone" or "Stone powder" molds
underwatersniper replied to Mad Moose Baits's topic in Soft Plastics
I have heard it describe as an artificial stone used to make countertops. They are a bit tedious to use because you need to lube them or the plastic sticks to them. They are descent molds, I have a few. They seem to dent easier as well as prone to flashing. the material is relatively soft as I have shaved off some of the ribs that were preventing complete pours. If you are looking for that style of bait then I would highly suggest looking into the do-it essential ripper. My 3.5 inch (3 cavity mold) is a walleye slayer. I gave some to some friends and they have reported 4+ pound smallmouth with it. The only downside to the do-it is that its not oriented for duel injector laminates. Also, do-it now has a 3" version (5 cavity) now. The other concern with the ones in your link is that those are shipped from the Ukraine where there is a lot of political and military unrest right now. Shipping usually takes about 30 days from them. I currently have an order with them from about a week ago. I am hoping they come through. I have ordered from him twice before and he is reliable. I am just worried about them being caught in red tape because of their political climate. His aluminum molds are pretty good although I have had some problems with his alignment pins loosening up on both the artificial stone and aluminum molds. one other note- UPS wont deliver them without a signature on the customs forms. Good luck- -
https://fishingskirts.com/ you might give those folks a call. I see they have rubber by the roll. It looks to be scored but they may be able to get what you are looking for. I have ordered lots of silicone tabs and some of there rubber tabs. They ship quickly and have good prices.

basstackle 910 tube mold

Barlows tackle sells 1 lb for $35. I have also tried harbor freight powder paint on my river Jig’s. Don’t know how well they are going to hold up yet.

I have not used his injector. The general consensus is to go with basstackle.com. I have their single and double injector and they are awesome. As far as baitmold.com, I have some of their molds and they are good. I do have one problem with them though. One of my aluminum molds and one of my stone molds has the alignment pegs loose and you have to constantly reseat them.

basstackle sells oil. I oil the O-roing to help it slide better. you may need to disassemble it and clean the tube as well.

I just added 2 pics to the the soft plastics gallery. The top 2 minnows in the pic were done with lam plate the bottom 2 were done with twin injector. With lam plates I have had problems with flashing, incomplete shots and even the 1st half bunching up in the mold while shooting the second half. The issues with the twin injector is getting it to shoot both halves correctly. Some of my larger crayfish look like 75/25 instead of 50/50. Still working out the bugs on this twin injector. Part of my problem may be unequal heat but I am thinking my biggest problem may have been that I was using 2 different brands of plastics on the batch I had trouble with. I am still really new to this as well.

underwatersniper replied to Porkrind's topic in Soft Plastics
Bts Has a couple molds I would like to order. However, until he puts legitimate contact information on his page I am not going to chance losing money on him. Notice on the contact page he does not give a phone number and he will not answer emails. -

Also, if you want to see the 720. Go to the gallery section, look under soft plastic and I have two pictures posted there. They are currently the first pictures after that video. -
Ecto-Craw Mold vs 736 Craw vs 720 Craw vs 736 Craw?
underwatersniper replied to Porkrind's topic in Soft Plastics
Go to their website and look at picture number four of the 736. The left pinvher is flat on top and the right pincher has a ridge on the top. The left pincher has that same Ridge on the underside. And the right pincher will be flat on the underside. -
Ecto-Craw Mold vs 736 Craw vs 720 Craw vs 736 Craw?
underwatersniper replied to Porkrind's topic in Soft Plastics
If you’re talking about the bass tackle 720 and 736 I have a little information. I have the 720 and have not got to use it on bass yet. I have ran it through the water of a local pond and it has tremendous action. I did email them about the 736 and 720 before ordering . The 720 has claw action similar to the Bob’s tackle 702 but a different body style. The 736 may look similar to the 702 in the picture but it is designed to produce a different action by using one pincure that is raised on top and the other pincure is raised on the bottom. They described it as more of a flapping action. As far as ordering from Bob’s tackle shack, I have no experience. I will say that all my email attempt to reach them have gone unsuccessful.
