clyde Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Looking to try and make a Swimbait. In a shad or Gill shape wondering what resin will work best for these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlebait Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 I've only used alumilite white but it worked great! Adding micro balloons allows you to control the buoyancy great which is very helpful on swimbaits because of the limited area to drill holes for lead.

Sonny.Barile Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 I tried it and it is great stuff. However, Smooth-on makes a similar product and it is cheaper. You can also get in places like Blick Art Supply stores so you don't need to hip it. They also sell the silicone mold making stuff from Smooth On.

Anglinarcher Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 Hobby Lobby has a lot of the Alumilite materials and you don't need the white. 40% of coupons available as well. Alumilite.com provides links to all you need in the way of instructions for lure making as well. http://www.makelure.com/ is their lure making material site. The choice is yours, but I believe you will find the instructions and support excellent at Alumilite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
