basskat Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Are you using a Do-It mold? I have the Do-It and have never had any issues with it. Maybe your lead is too hot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishlead2012 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Yes it is a do it mold I have a lot to cast so I will try and turn temp down a bit and see if it makes a difference.just thought there may have been a trick I was missing ?

cmayes Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 You also might not have he swivel set right where you need it to be, slightly offset could cause your lead to come out on the swivel. It has happened to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
