pirkfan Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 I make this type of swimbait, very effective trolling for albacore or casting to jumpers. I personally like the Lurecraft 665 mold (4 inch) which matches up well with the do-it Shad 9 mold in 1 and 1 1/2 oz, but I'm sure others styles work as well. #681 makes a 3 1/2 inch bait which matches well with the 1/2 and 3/4 oz Shad 9. There is a seller on eBay who also sells silicone molds, some of which have the square paddle tail.characteristic of Big Hammer baits. Do a search on there for "hand pour silicone" in the fishing section (I don't have any of these molds so can't speak to quality, Lurecraft silicone molds are excellent) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
