mainbutter Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 (edited) I broke in a few new molds from kevin's for 1 deal! They arrived today. I need more color dyes, but I like how these turned out. Opener can't come soon enough. Enjoy! Continuing to make more of these awesome line-through swimbaits. I wanted to make a bunch of pure white ones, proven color I like to fish with swimbaits, I hope it works just as well when I get to try these out this season.

Frank Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 All right you got me chomping at the bit. You posted some pics of the molds I ordered so now I am in envy. Nice looking baits. I am sure there were more of you that got your molds also so post some pics too. One question did you order some more inserts for the white ones?

Thats how companies should do it. The last 2 for 1 back in november, I placed my order the first day it came out and was the last person to get my molds, well over a month later. Figured they were just busy so I placed another order a few weeks ago and it took 3 weeks to get that mold... I will not shop there anymore. This was not at basstackle.

Six weeks for me to get my order from that sale and had to call to get it. On these sales it seems that if customer service is not your strong suit why would you have a sale to make it more apperant. Hey and how about the free shipping for orders over 49 bucks. I think that is a big plus to. As most of you can tell I do email him quite often and he said he is busy but has it under control. I have never met him but in time I am sure I will. He actually listens to you when there is an issue with one of his products. I am sure in the next week most of the orders will be filled.

Frank I had to prod him as well with a few emails and some posts on his forums. I hear he is a great guy, just wish his mold making abilities were a little faster.

pluraloffant Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 I too would like to thank kevin for this sale. I just got mine yesterday. I need to get my pouring area set up so i can get some baits made.. it was nice and warm today i was half tempted to go put the boat in. Gotta get some baits made first.. Could someone explain how that insert style swimbait works.. I didnt understand it and the added $$$ of those inserts turned me off.. i went for the 5" open pour hollow belly and the small split tail. The split tails look nice.

I didnt understand it and the added $$$ of those inserts turned me off.. i went for the 5" open pour hollow belly and the small split tail. The split tails look nice. The insert is actually a keel weight with a hole through it so a hook can be mounted below the bait(like a treble). When the bait is taken by a fish the body of the swim bait is free to slide up the line and not stay in the mouth of the fish. The added cost is there but when the bait is not good any more you can use the weight over again. Bob and Kevin are actually cousins. Must be nice to have the talent that these guys have.
