    My version of a inline buzzfrog. I assembled the rig and also made the frog using a combination of injection and handpour
  2. They look fine as far as the dent goes, tgere coukd numerous reasons make sure you top off your mold, certain senko molds need spru extenders. Search threads in here, lots of information.
  3. been a while since I have been on here, I remember trying to do a perch color stick bait and came out with fire tiger instead. I use to make these all the time about 11 years ago when i was doing hand pours. I will have to revisit it now that i'm back into making baits again
  4. It's been a few years and wanted to see how much has changed, wow am i impressed. I have been quite busy the past few years and only making baits for myself. I want to get back into business again, but not hand pouring, I have researched a few injectors and will most definetly do laminates again. so what are the best injectors out there right now
  5. Been a while guys, been working more than pouring, stopped the whole ebay thing due to ridculous prices and garbage being sold out there, but have quite a few steady customers and picked up a few FLW guys for some custom baits. decided to just stick with custom baits now and seems to be a lot less stressful not having to pour for hours on end to fill orders anyway, been a while and wanted to drop by and see who is still around and say hi to the new generation of pourers. Just picked up the bent worm mold from Bob and it is really nice, didn't think i would be able to pour them with salt, but I can and have made some nice lamintes, well sort of more of a solid color with a stripe, fish love them 5.9 inchs long and more like a skinny senko, I have been tearing them up on them, so if you had doubts or questions about the mold here is your answer, they rock, will post some pictures soon of some of the new stuff and new colors, good to see some of the old dogs still hanging around. tight lines
  6. Kim, Looking forward to trying it out, will place another order soon
  7. Where are you getting your colors from?
  8. I use big split shots in my color bottles, they don't clog the nozzle and keep the colors stirred good
  9. Bob's frogs are very good easy to pour and run great if rigged properly, too many times people use the wrong hook on frogs and it causes them to flip and track wrong on the retrieve, best to use a hitchiker when rigging frogs
  10. how much do they cost and what size? Information Pleeeeze
  11. beautiful bait Jim, very nice job..when do I get my all exclusive clear with black and silver grubs:wink:
  12. hey who better? I mean voting now is like two seats on the titanic at least with me you have a guy who likes to fish, loves the outdoors and simplethings in life, is creative, is main street america, has no interest in people giving him money(unless it;s for worms) can not be bought out by the berkely's and zooms of the world would change all fishing tournaments to solar powered trolling motors( rainy days should be spent with the kids) would have leveled iraq years ago and took all the damn oil, gas would now be 45 cents a gallon would have capped what doctors could charge for health care and would not pay them a cent if they didn't figure out what was wrong in the first place..I mean come on even the guy who finishes last in medical school is still called a doctor, put them all on a pay for performance plan but seriously, it's just a spoof, everyone needs a good laugh every now and then
  13. it was my understanding that Bob got screwed over by this guy, but that's just what i heard

    Nice bass

    Took this Pig on one of my 5 inch stickbaits., give me any color as long as it's purple:)
  15. Subject: New Presidential Candidate... It's someone we know! Hi, There's an effort to elect an unknown random person as President... and it's someone we know! Watch this online video about the surprising new nominee: 2008 Election Coverage Jot back a note to let me know what you think!
  16. wow looked at that lurecraft link, over 50 cents a bag? little bit high, I use standard 4 mil bags, and have no problems with them. a 1000 will run about 38.00 delivered.. I see way too many people add drops of oil or scent to the baits in the bag and maybe that's why they leak, might be adding a bit too much. I use a tupperware container and add a few drops to that and swish them around, then pack them, when I seal a ten pack I push all the air out and it's pretty tight, a 10 count bag will have all the baits stacked one on top of the other and they stay that way. I have now mastered the art of 2 finger zip locking while pushing all the air out:)

    first plastics

    whatever you do.....do not get discouraged. It was only a 1/2 dozen years or so ago that i was telling a friend that making your own plastics was a stupid idea and that they would never work as well as the store bought ones..now outside of a zoom speedworm, I never buy store bought plastics
  18. might have to re-visit the anchor del, had nothing but problems, seems the spout is a bit different and plastic seems to bubble more for me...

    first plastics

    thanks for sharing, good luck with them. Let us know how they work
  20. bed bath and beyond has them all the time, it's the only time I agree to go shopping with the wife as i know I can always throw a few in the cart that she will never know anchor or any of the others, and you are just asking to get burned, garage sales are a great place to find them as well, I found 3 of them for 2.00 not too long ago

    Absorbed colors

    not too long, depends on how much color you want in it, usually overnight will do it. I did 200 for a customer of the purple ones, to get them the way he wanted them i let them sit for 48 hours

    Custom Frogs

    Had to make up some more custom frogs, thought I would share the picture of how they came out

    Absorbed colors

    yeah you would have to browse the gallery for my pearls and hi lite baits, as far as absorbing pearls and hi lites, no I have not, could probably do a hi lite rub and see how that comes out but hi lites are not cheap, might not be worth the time or money involved but one never knows
  24. yeah this was my first attempt, goota get the table top tripod for sure
