  1. Do it Weighted Hook Mold makes 1/16-1/4 weighted hooks, uses the jig style hooks with screw lock.
  2. Other than eBay international, anyone know where I can order these?
  3. Made this compact 5/16 buzzbait and 1/2 oz spinnerbaits from an s bass mold w/ coil keeper mod and a swim jig mold w/4/0 owner hooks. Turned out pretty good.

    P-Nut Head Jig

    I've heard these are popular over there. What makes the peanut head better than a standard round head finesse jig like an eakins?
  5. Can you explain the advantage of the longer wire here?
  6. You're right. Just wanting to make a small quantity, and was hoping someone would have a Picasso lying around and could give me a ballpark. I don't happen to have one on hand and that model isn't sold locally.
  7. Picasso makes a cool spinnerbait with an Indiana main blade and a willow kicker. In my mixed condition fisheries here in Tulsa, seems like it would be a good fit. Can't find ANYWHERE what size blades they're using. Indiana blades in particular are hard for me to size. Any ideas?
  8. Or if anyone would be willing to pour me some slim chunks...?
  9. Does anyone know of a hand pourer/custom pourer who is selling baits made with del marts chunk molds? Specifically the swimming chunk, slim chunk, and big salty chunk?
  10. Seems like maybe the titanium single strand will be stiffer than the braided surflon, so wondering if I should go down a bit... It's expensive stuff to experiment with and get wrong. I've read of a couple guys on here using 40-50lb. titanium wire.
  11. Ready to start dropping titanium double weedguards in my jigs and finesse heads. What lb. test/diameter are people using for this? I use 60lb. and 90lb. surflon leader material currently for weedguards, for reference.
  12. Is anybody shooting either of these molds commercially? In other words, is there anywhere I can buy some of these tubes without purchasing the mold?

  14. I happened to have the forms lying around, but I agree there are probably better (and less rigid) options. Regarding the use of fluoro or weedwacker cord, how do you keep it from melting when powder painting?
  15. It's a commercially available wire originally for keepers on a football jig I think. Time will tell how well it holds up in this application.
  16. Been working for a while to figure out a shaky head that works well in gnarly rock, wood, and sparse grass and also Zman friendly. Love their baits longevity and bouyancy but don't play well with a lot of shaky heads. Came up with this using a modified s-bass head.
  17. Took them out yesterday and caught a bunch of smallmouth and largemouth on them in 5-20 feet of water. They work great! Best part-- the trailer stays on.
  18. After struggling to find a comercially produced all-purpose bass jig that had all the innovative features I wanted at a reasonable price, I set out to create one. I wanted the screw lock trailer keeper of the strike king tour grade skipping jig, the hand tied reverse half-skirt of the greenish tackle skipping jig, the extra fine cut silicone and compact size of the ike mini flip, and the head shape and hook style of the 4x4 Randall Tharp jig. I started with a brand new do-it Model S bass jig, and got to work with a dremel for about 2 hours. The result, a jig that is equally at home skipping, flipping, hopping, and dragging, turned out really good!
  19. Looking for a place to buy 2.6" slim chunks, 3" swimming chunks, and 3.5" big chunks ala Del Mart molds. I don't want to pour them, just want to buy them. Any small companies or individual pourers selling these models?
  20. No, they were given to me by a guide in central arkansas at least 10 years ago. Maybe 15.
  21. These were discontinued years ago, that I know, but aim curious if anyone can identify this jig. It had a weed guard and skirt at one time.
  22. I have a SMB-4-MTD weighted hook mold and a RWR-3-AYS weedless round head jig mold. 30 each includes shipping. Would be interested in trades for jig skirting materials or a ARK-3-AY mold.
