Xxsckarterxx Posted March 21, 2018 Report Share Posted March 21, 2018 Can you use the regular posiion tail hooks in the swingtail mold? Also to me it looks like you could use a type of spinnerbait straigjt wireform coming out the head in the swingtail mold am I correct?

Painter1 Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 The poison tail swing mold doesn’t use a hook. just a form 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EironBreaker Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 The eye slot isn't the same size as the jig mold so the hook eye won't fit without modification of the mold. The wire form has a larger diameter then a hook. Also no weed guard slot. Nothing that couldn't be overcome with modification. Same thing to use it as a spinnerbait mold. Depends on how much you want to cut the mold up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilpdriverrat Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 I have poured some spinnerbaits with this mold WITHOUT any modification and very little flashing using preformed spinnerbait wire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the mold close completely? The mold I have didn't look like it would close on 0.040" wire but I didn't actually try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilpdriverrat Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 I got it to close no problem. Have only used the 1/2oz size so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm, well I guess I'll need to test mine out. Thought I'd have to mod it a little for a spinnerbait. Thanks for the info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the greek Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 I've also poured spinnerbaits with it and they come out great. Also used a 30 degree hook and it makes a nice swimbait head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
