girls_hunt_fish_too 0 Report post Posted June 7 I am curious if anyone knows where I might be able to locate some Ditto Gator Tail Worms for sale anywhere other than ebay. I have not been able to find any place that sells them other than ebay. I'm particularly looking for the 7" Electric Red and will, of course, purchase other colors as well. Any help that y'all can send my way would be greatly appreciated! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

girls_hunt_fish_too 0 Report post Posted June 13 Thank you for your input SpoonMinnow. Walking Dead, so with Scorggins having the molds, I suppose I won't be purchasing any Gator Tails unless it's from Ebay and I cannot find the electric red on Ebay. I'm so sadly disappointed! Thank you guys for your help. Please do keep me informed if y'all happen to hear of anyway I might be able to purchase them. Thanks again guys! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
William DeMent 13 Report post Posted June 16 Do you want your own mold or just someone to make them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
girls_hunt_fish_too 0 Report post Posted June 16 I would like to purchase some of the Ditto Gator Tail Worms. However, I see where Scroggins has the original molds therefore, I'm sure that's impossible. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
William DeMent 13 Report post Posted June 16 I have 6 of them in .5.5 8 and 12 inches worms Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redfisher 7 Report post Posted June 16 Who made them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
girls_hunt_fish_too 0 Report post Posted June 17 The original Ditto Gator Tail Worms... you're kidding?!?!? Who made them and what color? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redfisher 7 Report post Posted June 17 Meant the molds. Did not mean the worm itself. Obviously they could be a custom or a mold cutter who no longer is around or cuts them. It was a simple question about the molds. The color in this case I will say probably aluminum. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
William DeMent 13 Report post Posted June 17 Yes they were custom made . They are aluminum. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redfisher 7 Report post Posted June 17 Got ya, I believe the Doc Irv baits are an old Bear Baits Mold but I could be wrong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

girls_hunt_fish_too 0 Report post Posted June 22 Redfisher, are you saying you have the original Ditto Gator Tail Worm molds? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redfisher 7 Report post Posted July 8 No, but I probably could get my hands on one if I really wanted too. I'm not calling in that favor though, I have no need too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nada, but I did find another 100 pack of electric blue, 2 15 pack electric blue and 2 15 packs of black blue. Are you interested in any of these? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After a bunch of phone calls and misinformation I gave up eventually thinking they had gone to scrap. I could've done with out seeing this thread. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpoonMinnow 23 Report post Posted October 31 (edited) Injection molds of the two sizes are easy to make or have made. Original: . Lurecraft sells them in a silicone open pour mold such as this one that's in their catalog. Basic shape minus textured body and tail but the action should be close as long as the tail is as thick as the original.
