edgecrusher Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 Great head, one thing to be vary of, is I found wires loosen easier in that mold than others - must be due to the compact head leaving less wire embedded before the hook.

sdsaw Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 My buddy and I modified a jig mold to accept spinnerbait wires. It came out pretty nice !!! Nice job! I'm curious if the the video was stabilized by youtube during the upload I see the date stamp jumping all around but the video images are pretty stable I've uploaded to youtube and they have offered to stabilize the shaky parts but I have declined Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would using a harder lead prevent this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Hahn Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Would using a harder lead prevent this? I doubt it. I had a Stanely spinnerbait that would catch fish when a virtually similar one would not. But, the wire lossened in the head after a while. A little JB weld tightened it back up and it's still going strong many years later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes YouTube stabilized it and now the date jumps around lol. Usually have te date stamp off. The stabilize function on YouTube usually works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been keeping an eye out for this. I've been making sure to get as much lead on the hook as possible. So far so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimpy Posted November 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 I've poured a bunch of these now. Like edgecrusher was saying about the hooks loosening, I have had a few that there were loose wires. I inspected every one I made closely. the majority of them came out great, but there were a few that were lose. We will see how the good ones last after a lot of use !!!!
