carolinamike Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Are you prepared to buy 10,000 pieces per color? If you call me, I will help you even if you don't want to use my services. Like I said in my PM I need more information. This is so I know what direction to send you. You also need more information so you understand how large scale production works.

Frank Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 You can call D&J plastics but like Mike said be prepared to buy ALOT of one color. Don't believe there is anyone smaller that does what you are asking. A lot of guys have a machine but do there own work only. Not like there is a whole bunch of big guys either.

carolinamike Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Keep in mind that D&J are well known for being a knock off company. Not only do they manufactor baits but they also have a retail sales company(Big Bite Baits). Over the years they have helped shut down several mom and pop businesses. There are more injection companies, but unless you have ten or twelve molds they consider you small potatoes. With these companies, the big boys come first, most all of the big companies, including D&J, want to do a full day's run of a single color, no one wants to change the color in the middle of the day. A day's run can be 10 to 15 thousand pieces per color, some compaies will do less but there is a 25 to 30 percent charge for doing so. I dont mind helping you find another injector but I pretty well know all of the injection companies out there, and they are also familiar with me. I dont need to know details about your bait but I do need to know the details of what type of work you want done, what you expect from an injection company, and what your mold is capable of in order to put you with the right injector, and i can also recomend a mold maker to you, but i will need to know how you want your mold sit up in order to suggest a mold maker. Like i said I dont mind helping you, i've done it for several companies and some of them I dont do their work. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniper Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 It would be nice if you had options in Texas where you are posting from but I don't know of any. If you are just starting out, you won't find a better option than Carolina Mike. He is very good at what he does and very helpful.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
