Vodkaman Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Most people are using RTV (sorry), trying any other medium will likely end in tears. Be careful when choosing your cast material, most resins are heavier than water and your lure will sink like a stone. Feather Lite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadawgs Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 I am almost done with my first resin bait, but I'm very satisfied with results so far. I used aluminite mixed with micro ballos for the bait and rtv for the mold. Just make sure you take your time with the molding process. No need to waste all that effort you put into your original Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
