Lets buy a mold and split the cost.

Awesome mold, seems really expensive for 3 cavities. basstackle has a similar one 6 cavity for 199 and it can do laminates...

I don't like it as much and you have to inj all 6 holes separately. http://www.basstackle.com/6008_Chatt.../6008-kj-6.htm

BTW... I ordered some of the bass tackle model see if I like them.

I will be curious to see just how much meat is in the body. They do look good though.

BT sells that mold in single cavity as well. Good bait. Could use a hook slot or thin it some.

The body is THICK I will agree. I had a single cavity and sold it due to how thick the body was.

I'll agree about the separate injection, but that's what allows it to do laminates. And 175 for 3 cavities is STEEP imo!

The body is way too thick for what I want.... It was worth a try.

I have the basstackle mold, don't like it very much. I like the Lurecraft way more. If I threw chatterbaits more I would probably get one.

[RangerTim619]

would they work as just a swim bait?

not a bladed jig trailer

[21XDC]

I dont think they will "swim" on a jighead...

I like this one better

[RangerTim619]

I would agree that one does look better but still pretty meaty in the body

That is why I’m trying to make this one work.

Just wanted to put some additional pictures up after a couple weeks of having this mold. My buddy bought it for me, because he burns through so many Zako's. It's pretty much a dead ringer and there really isn't any big difference between the 2. The top bait is GYCB and the bottom came from the mold. It's a really nice mold for anyone that throws a lot of bladed jigs. Oh and it works too. IMG_1011.JPGIMG_1012.JPGIMG_0894.JPG

It won’t work on my bladed jigs.

For now, I'm having 400 zipper grubs made in a custom run color... Light green pumpkin seed with blue highlights.
