Problem with spinnerbait mold

Recommended Posts

Your options are limited.  That is the old style of mold so you will probably be best to dremel out a slot for the hook point to fit in the mold.  Either that or bend the wires.  You can see how the newer molds have the aluminum removed so the hooks will fit.

Have you tried turning the hook and the wire over. I think the hook is facing the wrong way in your picture. The point of the hook should be on the hinge side of the mold or at least this is the way that I pour my spinnerbaits.

I figured he was molding them that way so he could get the blade arm of the wire farther out from the mold without bending it.   I have done that from time to time when I wanted to set the hook further down in the mold so it sticks out more.

looks like it was designed to have the hook going the opposite direction.

Then the wire frame does not fit at all. I have moved on to other projects now and will revisit this in the future.
