There’s a newer company out called epic molds anyone order from them as of yet? 

I saw them on marling baits video, looked into them a bit. The molds look really good I just haven’t pulled the trigger yet.

I have seen the Epic Bait Molds products in Marling Baits videos as well, they look incredible and are very high quality. I am just getting into soft plastics so they are the first one that came to mind.

I have a few Epic Bait Molds and they are all VERY high quality. As the son of a boutique machinist and die mold maker, I'm looking at these for more than just the baits they produce, and Jason is making products to a very high standard. If you are contemplating EBM molds, just get them. They have just about everything in stock and on-hand, and ship almost immediately, no waiting.

I am a retired police officer and I very much understand having standards. This craw worm I want to have a mold made of is a worm that I first used a good 30 years ago. I have contacted the tackle store I bought them from and they don’t sell them anymore. They were bought way back when you went in counted out as many as you wanted out of a plastic bin . This type craw worm won me my first ever check in a tournament. I have just started pouring a few soft plastic lures . I don’t sell any of my stuff but I do give some away to my grandsons

Brother if you're not looking to sell them, why not make a couple molds out of plaster?  Pretty easy and fairly cheap to do.  You might have an imperfection with one from time to time, but the fish don't seem to care :-)

To ALSworms I am very new to this soft plastic worms stuff and was not aware I could make a plaster molds that would hold up , is there a guide for making them 

Silver Valley and Mark got you covered, bro.  I did it a really old school way, but it seemed to work fine.  Hardest part was keeping the baits secure when pulling the plaster.  I would just super glue baits on a flat pan, pour over and pull the plaster out when dry.  Trim the edges, clean out any excess plaster, and I would use a product called Minwax to coat the mold.  Depending on how often I poured, I would generally have to respray the molds a couple times per year.   I'm sure the newer guys have a much better product you can coat with, though, and hopefully someone can chime in with ideas. 

Feel free to fire away with any questions as you go. 

Good luck!!

I coated mine with modge podge @alsworms I even made a two sided open pour swim 3 years ago that I heated on a griddle and skin poured. I still have it. The tail design didn't work out, but I wanted to see how plaster would hold up on a griddle, and it did.

Awesome idea!  Seems I remember a member or 2 on here who used that. I noticed they also offer it in an aerosol can.  Do you use that or just the putty?
