Les Young Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 I ordered the 11 inch smoothy ribbon tail worm mold & i'll have to say i'm impressed. A quality mold that shoots great every time & makes some really nice big worms with a big ribbon tail that will see heavy use this summer. I also like the fact that there are no ribs or egg sack so it's easy to cut down to pretty much any size wanted without any problem rigging a hook in it. I like it.

Les Young Posted March 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) No drop count or glitter measurement at all. I just squirted some colorant & dumped some glitter in & heated for 2 minutes just to see what kind of worm it made. I really like the fact that you can make 4 at a time so it will be easy to make a couple dozen pretty quick like.

basskat Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 That's a nice looking bait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted March 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 When holding it up you can really see that the tail's going to work nice too. I started throwing a lot of worms again last summer & used the zoom ole monster & i think this will be a good replacement for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskat Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 (edited) I have the Bait Junky 10.5 ribbon tail mold. Probably catch more fish on it in the summer than any other bait I throw. Edited March 7, 2021 by basskat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Young Posted March 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 I shot 5 dozen baits today as fast as i could go to see how it handled the heat when shooting repeatedly & never had a single issue at all.Shot great every time & never had any flashing, denting or hollow spots. Great mold in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to buy it because i like how close it resembles the ol monster, but thought with the cavity count & one dollar difference that i'd give this one a try. If something happens that i change my mind i will definitely be the baitjunkys mold for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskat Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 I shot over 8,000 baits this past year through the BJ mold and the only issues I had were self inflicted. All my customers love them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted March 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Oh no doubt. I’d say the ol monster is the most popular big worm going & it’s as close as you get. I pretty much know my buddy’s are going to be wanting a bunch of mine when they see that I’ve been making them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskat Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Is it about the same diameter as an old monster? I'm looking for a mold that is similar to the big dead ringer. The dead ringer has a wider tail than the old monster. Great bait to throw in the grass. Only problem with the Zoom is one fish and it's done.

Les Young Posted March 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2021 (edited) I use to fish the dead ringer & big dead ringer all the time on hot summer nights. That big thumping tail will flat just that. Thumped. Edited March 9, 2021 by Les Young Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
