Skimpy Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 I love fishing Hula Grubs so much I had to start making them. I've had a lot of people ask me how I attach the skirt to the grub, so i figured I would share this video ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Ray Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Does anyone know about a Ika mold. I see how to make one now thanks to this video. I had a friend who wants me to make them. Oh yeah dope video Skimpy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Thanks Skimpy. I just ordered one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Ray, I made a two piece, 12 cavitiy mold from pop for the bodies, and it works fine. I made two shallow mating wood boxes to hold the pop. I also bought two 8 cavity fat Ika body two piece alum. molds from someone here, along with 6 BT skirt molds. I don't know who made the body molds. They use removeable locator pins and knurled cylindrical knob nuts and screws to clamp the two halves together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Travis how hot do you set the blade too? Also how do you clean it? I scraped it after it cooled and there was a lot of plastic burnt on it Set up the same way as you but I place near the end of my bench and clamp the base to bench. I usually clean when hot with a folded over cloth (damp at times) and more about removing just hot plastic. I have used a puddy knife also just heated with a torch also.
