toadfrog Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Go ahead and do injection by pass the hand pour thing . Most manufactuers of molds sell starter kits that you can choose the mold or molds in the kit . sounds like you need panfish type baits . Bass Tackle and Jacobs Baits has the best selection . I like the Jacobs injector for single shots . I would also go with the large injector up front . That way later you won't have to up grade .

ipt Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 prepare to get addicted, spend a lot of time on the forums before you jump in. its an expensive hobby and you will not save money in the long run haha. figure out what baits / molds you want and start small, as you get better you can expand. there are a handful of plastic suppliers out there, get samples from them to see what you like.

I wouldn't pass on hand pouring as it really depends on what you are looking to do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
