    Temporary filler

    green replied to Jig Man's topic in Wire Baits

    Well, just in case if you do need to do a temp mod, I used some Lee case sizing lube (what I had on hand) to easily release the high temp silicone from the mold. I think any oil or thin wax coating will work

    I modified a horse head underspin to add a wire keeper. I actually reduce the jig weight as I filled in a part of the head. No issues with fillout. If you do get issues, turning up the temp on the lead often helps.

    Nice! I have a mold the runs around the hook eye. What process do you use to add the silicone?

    VMC6317 can be used, but requires some modification to the mold. Mods can be done in such a way that Victory 10777 can still be used.

    Hi Jig Man and cadman. First I want to thank you both for readily sharing your knowledge and helping noobs like myself. As for the topic at hand...I modified my weedless MWF mold to use VMC6317 in addition to the Victory 10777. I am not getting runs along the hook shaft with either. The VMC hook actually have a smaller shaft diameter (0.038" vs 0.040" for the 10777). I run my lead at 700F. So maybe 750 is a bit too hot?
