bobothewizard Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Morning folks, I am looking for some suggestions on a mold that would match the bass pro shops speed shad type bait. I have the do-it ripper mold but the baits are fairly large and fat for a 3 1/2" swimmer for smallmouth. Does anyone know of a mold that would match the bass pro shops swim shad in not only length but thickness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBehr Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Have you seen the new 3" version? It is a LOT smaller, especially when you see it in person. https://store.do-itmolds.com/ripper Do-it will send you samples for a small fee. https://store.do-itmolds.com/Sample-Bag-You-Choose_p_332.html I am an avid smallmouth fisherman and I think the 3" version is going to be perfect for smallmouth. Unfortunately, the weather here in Minnesota has not cooperated yet this year and I have not had a chance to fish it on the Mississippi.

bobothewizard Posted May 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Oh no, I didnt see that. I do not think thats the same mold I have. Mine has 3 cavities and was $35. They must be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
