Yes, it was that blank.

Thanks, Braided Line. I called Seeker and had a really pleasant conversation with one of their representative.

Hi, I'm new to this forum, but not this site. I've pondered for some time the idea of building a rod. Now, I think I'm ready to give it a try. All my rods are Loomis graphite rods; so, I thought I might build a glass rod in order to have something different. My recollection is that Seeker used to/still does produce a glass blank that Rich Forhan was particularly fond of for any fast moving baits. Do they still produce that blank; and, if so, what is its model number? Have any other blanks been developed that have proven better for the application of fast moving baits? Thank

Thank you all for the responses. There is a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience to be found on this website.

The Zoom color is 057.

Thanks for the response. I appreciate the guidance on lips. It may be next to impossible to remove the remaining lip without destroying the crankbait body. Not sure. Hopefully, others will respond with some guidance.

Hi, I got careless with a cast and broke the lip off a Jim Herter Gulp crankbait. First, I assume I can wiggle out with pliers the part left in the crankbait body. Is this correct? Assuming this is the case, does anybody have any replacement lips for sale? Thanks, Greg

Hi, I have a friend with an affinity for Zoom lizards (4", 5", and 6") in Pumpkin Green color. However, Zoom has apparently quit producing lizards in this color. Is anyone on this site familiar with this color? If so, do you pour lizards in this color for sale? Thanks, Greg

Cadman, Thank you for the information.

Had not planned on adding a screwlok. I'm not fond of them; because, I find them difficult to "center" in the worm. However, I borrowed a weighted, swimbait hook from a friend of mine, recently; and, the screwlok device actually incorporated a "centering" pin that was nothing more than an extension of the screwlok that protruded beyond the coils and could be stuck into the center of the worm, swimbait, etc. prior to threading the bait on to the screwlok. Have you seen these? If so, where could I purchase them?

Thank you smalljaw. This site has so many talented, experienced individuals.

Hi Walking Dead, Yes, I could probably fill in the hole for the weed guard and use that mold. Thank you for the idea.

Probably the PRO-102 series, or something similar. So, do you "drill out" each half of the mold?

I'm sure this has been asked, before, but..... I want to pour some shakey heads that utilize a barbed collar and flat eye hook. It doesn't appear Do-It makes such a mold. What's involved with modifying one of their molds to accept a flat eye hook?

Does anyone know which of the Lohr's crankbaits is the same as the Blazer Bait or Tapp?
