Painter1 Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Has anyone worked with this Underspin mold called the Herring Head? I was just about to modify a mold to look like this. Blade clearance from Swimbait looks good http://store.do-itmolds.com/Herring-HeadbrSz-18-14-38-12-58brHk-GAM-604brCollar-Ring-amp-Barb_p_1161.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 There is a thread I started about 10 threads down. Here it is. Do-It Herring Head Underspin Mold - #3510 I ordered my mold from LPO and should be getting it Tuesday. I will be pouring it on Wednesday. First time using this mold so I will report back when I do my first order. I don't expect any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBehr Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 The mold is easy to pour and the bait produced a lot of really nice bass (and a big walleye) for me this fall. When you pinch the spinner loop shut use a large pair of pliers so that you don't twist and loosen the wire in the lead (not that it really matters. ..the blade will always run straight anyway) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 DaBehr - I was thinking the same about that open loop, it just looks dodgy, but I am sure it is fine. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimpNoodle Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 There's nothing dodgy about the loop or the wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalljaw Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 I have the ultra minnow mold that my friend Apdriver modified for me to take a small swivel that I attach a Worth ball bearing swivel to with a size 3.5 blade for all the sizes but I use 1/4oz and 3/8oz almost exclusively. I thought I was going to have a clearance problem but I don't, and the reason being is when you retrieve it, the blade is not perfectly straight back, it is at a slight angle unless you really burn it but that defeats the purpose of it. Some guys aren't doing to good with them and others are having a ton of success and I wasn't doing so great in warm water with it but in the cooler water it worked very well.

Dink Mendez Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Does anyone know what size the eye socket is on the 3/8 and 1/2 head are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
