joe406 Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 I just bought the mold a few weeks ago but I haven't had a chance to make any yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe406 Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 Alright, I just made my first batch. Mind you, I am a beginner and my only experience so far is with Do It Essential molds. Anyway, I'm super happy with the way they pour and work. I had problems with two of the six eyes on the first run but solved the problem on subsequent batches by pushing the eye in the socket more firmly. No problems after that. The lake is frozen, so I can't give you an "action" report yet, but they are my new favorites. The color changed some on the second and third batches, I think because I added oil. It might also have been from the reheating. The bloodlines were easy and the eyes are soft eyes from Spike it. I'm not sure if I have to dip these or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole's Customs Posted February 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 from what I have heard you will not have to dip the eyes because they are bonded together in the mold! and the color change will most likely be from reheating and getting a little too hot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe406 Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 (edited) Just poured my first Bloodline laminates with my four and five inch molds. I'm pretty slow and it is time consuming but I'm very happy with the outcome. I chose a patriotic theme for this practice. The lake is still frozen but I tried a five inch one in the river below the dam. With moving water it is a little more difficult to judge action (for me at least). Also, I hate to waste plastic so I ended up reheating many times. The glitter suffered a little. Edited April 3, 2019 by joe406 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redfisher Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 Incredible mold, get some great baits and the twin injector can light this thing on fire. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gr8_Outdoorsman Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 I can vouch for these swim baits. I had a great pre-spawn on Sam Rayburn throwing these on a Alabama rig in the Houdini color. Very durable and great action. I just ordered the 5” two cavity mold to try and start making my own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apdriver Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 Nice bass. I went to Toledo Mid March and it was a little early. I’m a bank beater though and I’m sure someone caught them then out deeper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redfisher Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 Buddy went last weekend. Slammed some great fish at the bend. Had one over 8 lbs. Caught 10 over 6, 4 over 5, and then a bunch of 3's. He fished 4 straight days and had a blast. He took pics and released. We made every bait before he left. Craws did the most damage with flukes but he caught 4 nice fish on the bloodline. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gr8_Outdoorsman Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 I’m ready for them to pull off beds and start getting on a pattern. I’ve had some great trips this year, but they can be finicky when on beds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
