heman Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 just thought i'd share my first try at pouring.. just plain old watermelon coloring with some MF plastic. I did notice the "shrinking" that happens when it cools and how i need a little over pour. (all in due time and practice). Of course you can see a couple of them i missed a bit and had some "extra appendages" but i was getting better the more i was practicing.

Frank Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 They look good and if the fish see the over pour they are lookng to hard. If you want to keep the schrincage down try pouring with cooler plastic. Just a little cooler though. Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuzzyGrub Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 A good first pour. Just wait to you catch your first fish on your baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSC Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Looks Good .. We all have out ways of doing this .. I start at the head on this type pour and go back to tail then come back up the middle to "Rond" it off. You will find the way that works best for you ... remember the "out side" edges cool first .. so you can work down the middle for the "Rounding Off" for shrinkage. Hope that helps JSC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longhorn Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 That's a classic worm that'll get bit. That would be a good mold to make over-pours from to make a POP mold with 10 or 12 cavities. As you start pouring more you'll see the need for more cavities. Welcome to the machine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Candy Bait Company Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 You can always trim overpour. Get a razor knife or scissors if you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basscandy92040 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 good looking worms...I remember my first pour, 4" big curl tail zipper worm...What mold is that? looks from MF? Keep at it, very addicting.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick reif Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 (edited) I like it!!! Good color, good profile, good pour. Throw it on a drop shot, a weightless dead stick, or a small jighead. You'll get bit for sure. good job edited to add; overpour is nothing more than a small flapper to the side Edited January 9, 2011 by patrick reif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
