bhorlings Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Is it impolite to ask Del or Bob for a sample bait from the mold before I buy? I am looking at a few different mold but want to actually see it, touch it, feel it before I commit. Just wondering what the general consensus was. Thanks.

Jonah Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Most companies are willing to send you a sample bait that was made from the mold, but not too many will send you an actual mold as a sample. Can't hurt to ask, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhorlings Posted December 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Not looking for the mold itself. I just want to see the finished product. I apologize if it was confusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delw Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Is it impolite to ask Del or Bob for a sample bait from the mold before I buy? I am looking at a few different mold but want to actually see it, touch it, feel it before I commit. Just wondering what the general consensus was. Thanks. No its not impolite to ask. I can tell you that I don't pour sample baits. when I do a mold I pour a bunch and then when they are gone they are pretty much gone. Mainly cause I don't have time to work and pour. I know April has been pouring some samples when she gets time. the other problem with pouring sample baits I found is this. I pour out of what ever plastic I have for myself usually from the bottom of the barrel or from a damaged shipment.some of the plastic I have has been sitting around for a year + , I don't know if its hard soft or med. I might have something with salt or might not. the sample would only give you the bait itself no action color, no perfect pours etc. ( April does pour some pretty good stuff) Now if you can figure out how to get a 17 year old daughter to start thinking about working I could offer lots of samples LOL.

Richard Prager Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Buy her a new car, Del. I bet she'll pour a few! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What molds were you looking at? If I have it, I'd be happy to send a couple. If I don't have it, somebody else might. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint308 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Your best bet is to find someone on here that pours what you are looking for and ask them to send you a few. I know I asked for and also provided samples to and from other TU members. The mold makers seem to have a lot on there plate and never get around to sending them. That was not a stab at Del or Bob. What exactly are you looking for? Saint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
