Do-It Bullet Jig

[Captainpaddlefoot]

Has anyone used this mold with either a Mustard 72760 or 72729? Looking at using 1/0, 2/0, 3/0 or 4/0.

 

I want to use a light wire hook. Going to be using it for walleye and smallmouth.

 

Bullet mold, part #3228,   Model #: BDB-5-A

 

Thanks, Doug

Ask Jon Barlow, the number you want is the Mustad 32729, the 32760 is a 90 degree hook and even though the shank is long the hook eye leg is too short to fit in a 60 degree hook mold. So the only light wire alternative is the 32729 or Eagle Claw 2729 black platinum.

The mold you have accepts a 60 degree hook. Mustad 32786 will not fit along with the 32729 as well both of the eye shanks on these hooks is too long. Naturally the 32729 is a thin wire. I would have to look, but an Owner 5304 has a shorter shank and that might fit, if you are looking to use a 2/0 or a 3/0. they are very light hooks, however very strong and sharp. There are not a lot of options for this mold. You can try putting in a 90 degree hook, put the pin for the hook eye in the mold is quite large, so you might have to grind it down, so you can place the hook eye over the pin in the mold.

Can't answer your question, but that is the next mold I want to get lol. For salt water though.
