Crappie85 Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 Hello guys, Was wondering if there was a mold out there that makes baits similar to the brewers sliders i seen a few but not sure size wize they are alike width wise etc. Also if you had the mold how well the tails hold up as i hate lossing tails after just a couble of nibbles from perch.... looking for 1.5 to 2 inch size.

Crappie85 Posted August 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 I see bass tackle makes a 655 tiny swim bait and jacobs makes a 1.75 and 2in paddle grub. Do any of you guys have the molds and willing to make me sample baits would be willing to pay of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crappie85 Posted August 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 Thanks srj but I got a hold of basstackle via a lady named sarah and she said she would get me over a sample bait of the 655 tiny ring bait. Do you like the action of the bait SRJ?? Also isnt it hard to shoot the baits i noticed each cavity has seprate injection ports which ive never seen or had?

SRJ Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) All paddle tail action is dependent upon the plastic used. I use hard and it works fine. It does need special care in that it takes so little plastic for each hole you can't just stop the flow and move over. Have not tried dual injection yet but I have a little 2 oz. injector for this mold and that's the way to go, for me anyway. It has such a great profile it really is worth the effort. a Edited August 23, 2017 by SRJ clarity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonteSS Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Jacobs 1.75 is awesome. Makes 10 perfect baits at a time. Easily cut down to 1.5" I can send a sample. good action with med plastic and fairly durable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crappie85 Posted September 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 Monte I got the sample you sent me put it next to a brewers very close design the paddle on the jacobs is a touch thicker. I've yet to get the sample from basstackle. Thank you monte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteSS Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 No prob Jacobs shoots 10 perfect baits and easy to trim from 1.75 to 1.5" by removing the front nub. I only use medium plastic but soft might give them even more action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
