kevtherev Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Has anybody out there tried to make a Snagproof Frog using Plasti-Dip or anything similar? They are good lures but seem overpriced to me, plus you gotta love the challenge! Thanks. kevtherev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks.kevtherev Kev snag proof frogs are not that hard to make. its a hollow frog but it still can be made pretty easy. my first one I used a drop tank off a F4-u Corsair model for the hollow part. heres what you do, make the mold out of anything pop / silicon etc. then when thats all done, make something shape round and beveled for the hollow part., attach a thin piece of metal to the bottom, insert it into the bottom part of your mold and pour around it and over it. unless its a 2 pcs then pour through the nose. when the plastic cools pull the insert out, it will leave a little slit which is no big deal, if you dont want the slit in it then take a hot knife and hold it in the slit to weld it up. works like a charm been doing them for 4 years on hollow frogs and swimbaits.
