RPM Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) Good morning I hope everyone is safe during this crazy time. I have a couple of questions and figured someone here might have the answers. I recently read an article about turning regular swimbaits into line thru. Pretty good article here it is: https://www.flwfishing.com/tips/2019-09-10-how-to-make-a-swimbait-a-line-thru Couple of questions: 1. Which 4, 5, & 6" Swimbait molds that have a hook slot do you prefer, like or feel like would give best results for such a project? I've got a few swimbait molds but not many that have hook slot capability so I may have to buy a few new molds. 2. The brass tube the article refers to as the fattube? looks to me this should be an item we could outsource or buy from a supply house in bulk? any ideas on what it actually is? I've recently started fishing swimbaits more, mostly as chatterbait or Jig Trailers but know alot of the FLW Guys on Ky. Lake prefer fishing the bigger, West Coast ( Ca. ) type swimbaits in recent years. Anyway, Thanky you for taking time to read this and hoping someone here can steer me int he right direction. Have a great weeeknd. Rich Edited April 11, 2020 by RPM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassCrackBaits Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 I use the 637 3.5” mold and love it. I’ve not used this mold but remembered seeing it on his page. Hope this helps. https://www.btsmolds.com/swim-bait/606-swim-bait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee's Lures Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 If you want a silicone mold, the 5" bape mold from stankx baits should be good. I have used several of their other molds, and they are excellent. https://www.stankxbaitco.com/product/sbc-molds-swims-jerks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
