braveviper Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 By all means im no expert at this i tried it with some success and i will try to help you.I used 2 pyrex cups to melt 2 different color plastics....then I made drops of the one color on both halves of the stick while the mold was open.Then I closed the mold and poured the other color in to fill the mold.Hope it works for you....Will be looking for pics of the finished product!

Thats the best way to do it, I use a tooth pic. being the dots are thin and small the plastic being poured into the mold from the top will laminate to the dots very easy and in most cases you wont have bumps they will just blend in very nice. I assume you are talking about a Alum mold? I dont know if pop or silicon would work I never tried it on those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Sock Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 I started doing those a while back ago when I was out fishing, I had my little one with me and he hooked a crappie, well as fate has it the hook was very very deep, we tried to release it but the hook had done it's damage, the fish died and as it was sitting and floating, I looked at the pattern of the fish, as these other fish were coming up and nipping it, then a big ole bass came up and just took it whole.. got me thinking that pattern baits have their place and moment. It is actually quite easy, just seperate the molds add some spots to each side.. best to off set where you add the spots as to not clog the molds when pouring the main color, silver with black is by far my most productive, I actually have quite a few customers that request these from me, swearing by them. The popular colors are black with flourescent red spots, silver with black spots, orange pumpkin with green spots and purple with silver spots... , I usaully run them 6.50 a ten pack, 6.00 if ordering more than one ten pack some might not consider that a lot for a quality hand pour but for the fact alone that there are so many knock offs out there selling for 7.00 a 50 count, people would rather buy junk in quantity.... they usually find out afterwards that you get what you pay for gonna start selling retail soon , getting my website set up soon, wish me luck, just 5 inch stickbaits for now and a lot custom stuff whatcha think of the name? www.americanbassbaits.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
