Newbie here, some eel mold questions

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I was wondering where I could get a eel mold of 80, 100, 120 and 150 mm, similar to the pictures attached.

And also curious, the fin is hand painted, right? And how do the manufacturers do the double color on these molds? Just by injecting one color before the other?

Thanks everyone

Try digging around in bugmolds.com website. They might have something similar. 
As for the bait, the company might use a proprietary TPU rubber. This would require high heat and high pressure through a specialized machine. Something that is out of reach for us “at home” makers. You could get close enough though by using a 2 part mold and pouring in the fins first then shooting the mold with a dual injector to get the top and belly different colors.
