joelhains Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) Who makes/sells the smallest salmon/trout egg mold? So far the smallest I've been able to find is bass tackles .156" egg mold. I'd like to find something about half that size. Anything like that available?

Frank Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 They have a .125 also. That is about the smallest I have seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglinarcher Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Any smaller and you will need to make it yourself. .125 is 1/8" and that is about the size of "real salmon eggs". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must have real small salmon in Utah. That is the size of trout eggs. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Well, Kokanee or landlocked Sockeye. But, lived in Washington, caught my share of Steelhead and Kings, and bought my share of commercial salmon eggs for fishing, and 1/8" is pretty much the normal size, or maybe on the small size. And, Joelhains wants even smaller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelhains Posted November 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 I don't plan on targeting salmon and steelhead with 2mm eggs!lol. I just need a mold that make very small balls of soft plastic! Around here king salmon eggs are 6-8mm. Trout eggs are a little smaller.

Anglinarcher Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 You northern boys always get the bigger salmon. LOL If you are going to do 2mm balls, I would suggest a custom mold, injection, and lots of skill to dial it in. Not one I would tackle myself.

Frank Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Well I am not a northern boy but ours are about the same 6-8mm. I live in Northern California the south end of the salmon and steel head runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
