dabassking Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 I was thinking about starting pouring bass baits as a new hobby. Not looking to save money but still have to keep the wallet in mind. Ya know? Anyways, I was wondering if any of you all have any input on the Bears bait making kits. They seem to have everything I'll need besides pyrex and a micro and they seem to offer the only starter kit. Would their kit be good for me to start on or should I buy everything seperately to obtain a better foundation to start on? Any input would be greatly appreciated. -dabassking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB GONE Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 All of the sponsors have kits. Bears baits and www.basstackle.com and www.del-mart.com. As long as the kit offers you the mold you want or you can choose, this is a good way to start. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kozak Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 just a heads up, if you're going to be doing some 1 sided hand pours, pick a mold that creates a wide-ish bait, AKA something that isn't extreme finesse or for panfish. The pouring takes a little practice and the wide baits will let you get used to it without making a mess...I learnt the hard way. Started out trying to pour a 4.25" skinny finesse worm... I basically coated the entire mold in plastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveh Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 over the last few years i have been teaching people to pour. i take the smallest open pour i have an a small pirex cup wiyh 4 oz of plastic and teach them how to pour it. once you master a small open pour mold you can pour anything.
