Basstackle 302 Frog.

Recommended Posts

I recently got the BT 302 frog and really like the baits (great action and no rolling unless you totally burn it in...) but I have a problem.... It's a side inject mold and the upside eye (in this case it's the left eye) always has a bubble void in it. Every. Single. Time. Whether I inject slowly, quickly, hotter plastic or cooler makes no difference.... I know it's because the way the mold is configured there is an air pocket that gets trapped as the mold fills up. My question is this: how can I reposition the mold securely so that I can inject it without winding up with a popeye frog? I'm not sure I want to clamp it in a vise at an angle as I don't want to damage the mold nor do I want to try to inject horizontally (no crude jokes please!!!) as I don't see how I could keep the sprue filled as the plastic cools....
