dchance Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Looking to see if anyone has found a way to easily make these baits. I know about using the Do-It ball ear mold but was hoping to find a way to use the football head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toadfrog Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 If I had an old football mold I didn't need I'd fix ya up . Send me a pic of exactly what you want and I'll work on it . Maybe I can help you do it with a football head . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dchance Posted October 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 sorry so long....but I heard that soon Do-it will be offering one in their lineup. I will just wait on it. Appreciate the offer though thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painter1 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 The "Mickey Mouse" ear-ball mold works pretty well with a split ring. If you use small hooks you may need 2 split rings. There seems to be a perception among the fishermen I deal with that the football shape is better (for all things related to jigs)and that having no split rings makes jigs better. It's like the salt / no-salt debate. The smallmouth in our Ozark ponds are killing the Mickey Mouse with a craw or beaver trailer when worked steadily along the bottom near rock transitions. Crank along the bottom, pause, stroke and BAM. Sometimes they nip at it, like bluegill (maybe it is bluegill??) while cranking it, but they hammer it when it tries to get away.!!

smalljaw Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 The Do-it model is probably going to be out at the end of this month, I want one myself after using a hard head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafloyd88 Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 It is now available to order. You have to call to order. It doesn't show up on the website but it can be ordered along with the inserts. They had a post about the availability on Facebook the other day. I ordered and received an email saying it should arrive at my home on oct 12th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Erick, Have you tried the jig rig with a fat sinker, like the tear drop shaped casting sinkers, instead of the thin one that Owner uses? The fatter sinker makes the rig bounce more on the drag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
