  1. enjoy making and fishing our own tubes,Have bears tube mold,s do-it tube molds if you don;t like cutting tails.Have angling AI tube mold's really enjoy these mold's for making tubes.No problem with lurecraft tail cutter's.For me making tubes have the lurecraft dipping rod's for tubes,have two sets of small and large.We like a Hand dipped tube's!! for our fishing we think they out fish's injected tube's.Just our two cents.Put some had dipped tubes in our yard sell last weekend,The guy who bought was at the door the next morning wanting more.LOL.have been making tubes a long time switched to baitjunkies salt water plastic.Really like it.will be buying more.Baitjunkies has tube mold's they have good review's may have to try baitjunkies.We bought a grub mold from Enforcer mold's 2.5 in the tails are already cut.A solid grub or tube really really like this mold.Bought another mold.Really,really like these molds easy to shoot and the fish tear them up!!like they never seen one before.LOL hope this helps.
  2. Like Bogbaits we have tried most of the plastic's.We make custom plastic's.We have been using Lurecraft 500 really like it for our baits.To those who must have this plastic we will have it on hand.Price sent us looking!!We tried some others not trying to start a plastic war. Recieved some batjunkies salt water plastic.Was skeptical at first.Really liked the price,fast service.Will be ordering more!!

  6. Not an expert!We make swim baits from lurecraft mold's and lurecraft 500 saltwater.No problem's except we cannot make enough.Friend's keep me cleaned out espically during tour season LOL!!They ask for the lurecraft plastic!!The best plastic made."our two cent's.Have tried just about evryone else because of price!!Not bashing anyone!! just what we have found.Poured some baits from someother plastic maker yesterday to soft baits,Tails would not work slow speed or high speed.Plasic is every thing. ordered MF's salt water plastic 2nd to Lurecraft and a good deal right now can buy 2 gallon's for 100's dollars.also ordered the MF 464.Really liked this plastic and price a little cheaper than salt water.Not an expert.Am sure their are better deal's.This is what we have tried.Hope this help's
  7. just ordered 2 gallon of MF salt water for 100 + shipping. MF has a special!!If interested.
  8. Have been using lurecraft 500 for dipping tubes"which we like salt water plastic"Tougher for cutting tube tails" the best out their,Our two cents."for what it is worth. $62 a gallon ouch!!,Will alwayes keep a few gallon's on hand.We use these tubes on the border water's of canada"Zup's" always catch a few pike and walleye.fishing for smallmouth.By request for our friend's .Tried lure works cheaper"liked the price. but did not like. the plasticTares the tails when cutting"liked baitjunkies price and plastic!! but have to mix plastic to get what we wanted. bought some MF salt water love it love the price!Great for tubes !!!.No mixing use right out of the jug!!Just ordered several gallon's from MF. Fast Service,good folks to deal with .ordered some 464 a little cheaper than the salt water 40 dollars a gallon.Not trying to sell,not my sponsor.Just our two cents.Hope this helps.
  9. Barlows hook chart/selection/barlows have trhe size and brand hook listed and when you click on mold at the bottom of page list the hooks that can be used with that mold.Really like Barlow's is a great source for hooks.Really Really like the Gami,Mustad's black nickle do not like the price.Has really jumped the last few years.We have switched to Barlow's Sohumi black nickle hooks for just about every thing.A very good hook for the price.
  10. Not two bad a couple of pieces of bass wood form your local cabinet shop "scrap",Refrigerator paint with epoxy
  11. Tried a y weed guard with the use of braid line the line catches in the weed guard and is a nightmare.Just started using the wire weed guard.Still catches the line when casting .We use stainless steel wire the line slides off.Works better.Our two cent's.
  12. The top picture shows them together inserted into bait "plastic"Can spread out or leave together depending on how heavy the brush. I know clear as mud.Also makes a Good frog jig head.Need the line tie a little more to the front and make those.Was taking some kid's/grandkids trout fishing they were having a hard time setting the hook.They changed the trout water's to barb less making these baits illegal to use.Was the deal for trout fishing.Mostly gravel bottom not much chance of losing .We would and still can catch 100 trout a day.In our trout rich river's.Trout have a soft mouth. With a double barb. easier for the kid's to hook the trout and get them to the boat.Into crappie fishing.Taking kids/grandkid's crappie fishing.Where we sit on top of the brush pile drop your jig down/With a float. bam crappie/bream on.Kids /grandkid's were losing fish right at the boat these jig's fixed that problem..
  13. Sorry posted in wrong place.will get my painted crank's out. can this be moved to the right place.thanks
  14. We made these back in our trout guiding day's.Had to quite when they went to barbless hooks. Trying some matzou sickles very small barbs and legal in barbless areas.Added a wire weed guard for crappie and bass fishing for those light bites.Costly and when you hang them up no getting them back.
  15. Worked for a Chem co. that has made it or its like substances."PVC "After 39 years it retired me.!!Be careful.Be Safe.Read the safe practices on these chemical's.We have/had safe work practice's to work with these chemical's!! Wear your safety equipment when using these chem .Cannot be safe enough!!
  16. We heat up our jig head,Spin jig head then use a small paint brush to tap on powder paint.Be careful not to touch hot jig head with brush.Theirs a learning curve to this method. especially blade baits/swivels ect.
  17. Recieved our MF Salt water plastic love it works great.The fish liked them !!
  18. 2.5 in glow/chart glitter Game changer.This Color recipe was shown to me by a legend fishermen on our home lake.8 oz of lurecraft 500,a pinch of glow powder,a pinch of chart Glitter. deadly on big crappie,smallmouth and walleye. Still working on the yamamoto 176 color .recieved our saltwater mf plastic and cinnamon coloring and glitter.The Big crappie like them also. Really liking MF saltwater Plastic's will be ordering More.

  21. Not a Pro have hand poured plastic's for years.New to injecting .Have tried just about every plastic.That being said. Started out with Bears med,Worked well but ordering takes to long.best mold's "bears" but takes to long on order.Switched to Lurecraft 500 For making tubes' costly fast service and very helpful folks to deal with but makes a tough but flexible bait. Especially for tube's."makesd it easier to cut tails" No mixing right out of the jug.But costly.Tried Do-it's plastic worked great affordable,Fast service free shipping! great folks to deal with.But tares up to easy.Tried lureworks the same as Do-it ! Fast service friendly helpful folk's like the price of baitjunkies but need to mix!!"would be about same price.Just received Mf salt water plastic"good price about the same as lurcraft going to try some today.Fast service. Free shipping.We My Father and we crappie fished a deep clear water lake .Yesterday fishing standing timber and brush piles.Caught over 60 fish we used one packaged "10"of home made crappie baits all day the only time we needed another bait is when we broke off in a tree or brush.The old saying is if its nit broke don't try to fix it. Probly will stay with Lurecraft 500.All my friends and neighbors ask for it in their plastic's because it is so durable but flexable and catches fish.
  22. We like Do-it Coffee Scent!! Took a good friend fishing last week.We were using our home made coffee scented baits had 15 crappie he had 0.He switched to the coffee scented baits we finished our limit.!!!We also add a pinch of glow powder to our baits think this helps the fish to see it better. He was using Bg baits.Not a Pro on a highly pressured lake.Have to take a number to fish a game and fish brush pile everyone has on their smart phone.Have to have baits you cannot buy at Wal-mart.
  23. We make use ("1 ,)Smoke black/red flake,#2 Green punkin,redflake,# 3,watermelon red flake,,#4 Junebug,# 5 RedBug.#6 ,Black red flake.We like salty bait's.also these colors we add glow powder's to them.
