    Question Little help needed

    Anybody have a mold for a large Arkie (bigger than 1/2) and/or large sparkie (bigger than 5/8)? I'd like to get 2-3 molded heads per cavity without hooks/guards/pins. Just need the heads. Pay you and shipping.

    Someone modified this mold to take a wire weed guard, But could be filled in with ease.

    Do you want a hole in the head for a weed guard? No hook?

    Sadly Mike my efforts have for the moment been distracted by walleye. I've only got as far yet as a model for a couple sizes.

    3/4oz.


    Ive still got to refine that as well before casting. This one for example is a little wonky to one side. Going to slightly flatten the back of the head to get a more concentric skirt fit on the collar. I'm still stuck on hooks as well. I want a light wire and flat eye but want to keep the sproat/o'shaugnessy bend as it's what I've grown confidence in. It's a mental thing. 4/0 pictured.
