Musky Glenn Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 I have wondered about the same mold. It seems odd that as many of those jigs as Rapala sells why is there not a mold. I wouldn't care if it had provesions for front and back hook. You can make the plastic wing out of a corner of the hard plastic lid that comes on some Rapala lures. That mold would sell.

kajay920 Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 I made a couple a while back. The problem I ran into was getting enough ballast to make it sink right and still be a small wooden lure. I cut the eye off of a bait hook and glued one in the nose and one in the tail then hung a #6 or #8 treble off the belly. The tail I made from heating a triangle of some Plexiglas. (before TU) They don't cast well by the way, the tail busted right off. I never went too far with it since I don't ice fish. I'm just to skittish on the ice. Go figure.

Musky Glenn Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 The got to be metal of some type to have the right action. They sink like a rock. I believe Rapala's are lead. Musky Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
