martbaz Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 alright so this is my first time posting on here ... so i have made myself a mold and when i poured the plaster aparently one of the claws of my "crayfish" moved a bit so it seems to be crooked a bit anybody know if it will always stay crooked once poured as a bait or will it be flexible enough to "seem" straight.. if my attached file works ull be able to see that the right claw is closer to the body than the other one. any input is apreciated .... i havent poured it yet i am a college student and live in a seperate town than back home so i wont be pouring this right away i was wondering if i should just start over? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basseducer Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 I don't think the fish will care if one is closer to the body or not. It may even be viewed as a weakness and draw more attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seconded! And that's a good lookin' craw. Don't sweat the small stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone2long Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Yep agree with the rest nature doesn't make things perfect that's a Good looking mold just seal it and start pouring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stick'em Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 I had almost posted to this last night, but I'm still yet a learning rookie. I agree, nothing in nature is exactly correct all the time. I mean when you catch a load of bass, all probably have something distinguishable about them. It could be a miniscule difference like a worn fin. Or one five pounder shaped like a football, another five long and slender. I like suttle differences. A craw with a built in(on) 'fightin' claw. Nothing wrong here. Pour it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basseducer Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 I know some guys that fish live craws and they pinch one claw off to make it appear more vulnerable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
