cadman Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 So I am looking for a heavier Arky jig mold(s) weedless. Is there anything stock out there in molds? Sizes I would be looking at, 5/8, 3/4, 1 oz or bigger. In a 60 degree hook like a 32786, 5304 or a L111bp and or a flat eye like a 32798. Let me know if I'm missing something, or can someone make a mold like this fairly inexpensive. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basseducer Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Hilts has a 5/8 and 3/4, but they have a ball collar. http://www.hiltsmolds.com/ArkyJigMolds.htm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EironBreaker Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 (edited) $45 for one size doesn't seem to be much of deal but not many choices. I have a large sparkie mold: 3/4, 1 and 1.25 oz if I remember right. It takes a 32786 or you can bend a 32886 just a little to make it work. I like a 6/0 in the EC 3886. I've also modified it to take a wire trailer keeper, a 5/32 weed guard and to take a cross-eyed hook. Have to do a little cleaning up but I don't pour many with it so the versatility is worth it.

Mr B Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Cadman, I have been searching for a long time too. 3/4 & 1oz would be great. Ya paying $45 plus ship for 1 cavity is a bit of a rip. Been contemplating making a 2 piece mold from Water Putty, but they are not all that great and I hate cleaning up the flash afterward. I will be watching to see what pops up on this one.

Matt, I have this mold as well. But correct me if I'm wrong, The base of the jig is not as wide as an Arkie correct? Also did you cut a slot in the mold halves to accept a small pin for weedguards to be put in afterwards? The mold we are talking about is the Do-It JYS-1055L correct?

Walking Dead Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Not established yet as far as price. I found it in the forum under the stuff we are working on subject. He listed some hooks on there as well. I am on standby to purchase it when it is posted on the store and cutting starts. His other jig molds are some sweet products.

EironBreaker Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Ted, I'll have to take a look at the mold tonight to know what the model number is for sure. I bought it off Ebay a long time ago and I think it is an older model, has blue handles. I think it is wider than a 1/2 Arkie but for a 3/4 oz it should be. I have a 1/2 Arkie and also a 3/4 Sparkie poured up so I'll get some pics taken tonight for comparison. I cut the weed guard slot into the mold, took some work to do. I can use Teflon pins.
