  1. Like I said. I got into this to try to SAVE MONEY and learn something. I would'nt say im being cheap, just smart. Maybe ill just make my own Tiki stick mold. Thanx for the input. -Jay
  2. Thanx but i cant see spending that much on a mold. I got into this to try to save money. Your molds look killer but im on a budget. Anyone else? Thank you, Jay
  3. Want to buy a Senko,Tiki Stick, etc. type mold from lure craft. Does anyone kow which one I need? Thank you, Jay
  4. I went fishing yesterday and before I did I went to the tackle place to buy some senko's. Well after seeing the price I thought I'd try some YUM Dinger seeing how there cheaper. To make a long story short I caught so many Bass I lost count. I talked to alot of other people on the lake who were using Senko's and while they were catching Bass I was out fishing them 3to1. Are these baits better or do I just have better luck? Also, Is it normal for these types of baits to start to fall apart after catching 3 or 4 fish? Thank you, -Jay
  5. I have a bunch of 1in. glow sticks I was thinking of putting into a Senko type bait. Has anyone done this and/or what are your thoughts? Thank you, Jay
  6. Ok, Ill give it a try. Thank you -Jay
  7. Im pretty new to this and want to make sure im doing it right. I went to Walgreens and bought a single buner to melt my plastic's w/. I pour the plastic into my pouring pan and place on the burner. for about 5min the liquid plastic stays in a watery state. Than it starts to clump up and than it starts to get liquidy again. Is this normal for it to go thru these 3 states? Im not sure if the heat setting im using is to hot or not hot enough. Thank you -Jay
  8. Thanks for all the info guys/gals. From what Ive read it really just up to the person making the bait as to when the salt should be added. Ill give it a try. Thank again, -Jay
  9. So at what point do I add the salt? Before I heat the plastic, into the hot plastic or what?? And how much? Thank you all for the help thus far. -Jay
  10. Ok, thanx for the heads up. Ill give um a try this week end -Jay
  11. I just made my first batch of plastics and am having a prob with my finished product floating. After I pull them out of the mold and put them in water they just float on top. I need them to sink? Im using lurecraft Formula #502 plastic. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you -Jay
  12. WoW, Lots of good info here. Thanks to all
  13. Do i need to put anything on the bait before I pour the plaster over them so I can get them out of the plaster?. like vasoline? Thank you for the reply! -Jay
  14. Im starting to get into making my own plastics and want to first make my own mold. Is there a tut somewhere to make your own plaster mold? It doesnt have to me a 2-sided mold. The only one ive seen was on another site but that site is down. Thank you and great site!!! -Jay
