johnnytheboy Posted September 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Thanks Ted, I have e-mailed do-it as your lead heads look the best i have seen, i wouldnt mind them in slightly bigger sizes poss upto 3 oz for pike and musky baits.

cadman Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 (edited) John, thanks or the compliment. Do-It (the Ultra-Minnow you see in my avatar) will not do custom orders. You will have to go to a mold maker like Shawn Collins. On another note, if you take a look at Do-It's Ultra-Minnow Jig, you can easily modify that into a spinnerbait. The SHR-4-M has 1/2, 3/4, 1, and 1-1/2 oz cavities. The SHR-3-L has 2, 3, and 4 oz cavities. You already have the hook shank cut out already. It wouldn't take much to cut out a slot at the nose. This would save you a lot of money buying a custom mold.............Just a thought. Edited September 1, 2009 by cadman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnytheboy Posted September 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 You are genius, that exactly what i'll do, it should be a doddle to drill the wire stem hole, fantastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 John, I wouldn't go so far and say that! I If I was a genius I would win the lottery and never have to work again, or be a phenominal brain surgeon. Anyway, I'm glad this will work for you. Let us all know your results.

ROWINGADUBAY Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Thats the exact jig mold i used to modify for my musky spinners and thay are awesome I bought the two to four jig mold but for the smaller sizes I went with the banana head because you get an extra wieght size in the 3/4 - 2 oz range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnytheboy Posted September 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 how did you modify it? did you just drill it out?? are the moulds made of an easily drillable material?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROWINGADUBAY Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 For that mold i used a hack saw and just cut a groove for the wire coming out of the jigs nose also think I drilled out the hook holder part to take an 8/0 hook and a piece of wire for trailer hooks/skirts . I forgot to mention that the first time out with my very first spinnerbait made from this mold on my first cast of that day took a 47" muskie and I just caught one the other night on the same one it makes a very good lure it seems if there is an active fish where youre throwing it it will bite right away oh yeah I use a straight flashabou skirt on most of them hope this helps George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George, What diameter wire form did you use? Did you buy it or make the wire form? Can I PM you for some more info? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
