Targa98 Posted March 14, 2022 Posted March 14, 2022 Anybody know of a good swimbait Jig mold with a screw lock insert. I dont really care for the Do It round head for a couple reasons. I'd rather have a 60 degree hook as opposed to the 90 they offer, or what I really want is the 6th sense style screw lock lead head. Thank you in advance for any help.
Dutch Posted March 14, 2022 Posted March 14, 2022 I don’t know of any except for possibly a custom by someone like Sean Collins and that would be pricey. You might get a mold similar to what you want and modify it. magicwormman and grizwilson 2
dtrs5kprs Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 With where the eye sits on that bait, you've basically got a 90 degree leg anyway.
JUNGLE JIM 1 Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 The Manic Mullet mold has a 60 degree hook and has kind of a barbed screw like collar. I'm putting 3/0 Vmc hooks in the 3/16. Picture taken under UV light. Johnsfolly and BilletHead 2
Smalliebigs Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 I bought a mold I liked pretty cheap from do-it a few years back and it takes a 60 degree Mustad with a flat line tie like a Shakey. I like that as it gives the baits more lateral roll. I don’t like the angled heads though and these are more or less a ball head but, they are supper effective and the hook up rate is the best I’ve experienced with a swimbait head. Mostly I pour 1/4 on a 3/0 Johnsfolly, Daryk Campbell Sr, dtrs5kprs and 2 others 5
Smalliebigs Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 9 minutes ago, fshndoug said: did you modify the mold for the weed guard Kind of the mold had 4 slots all 3/16 that accommodate the 3/0 hook. I modified Two of the slots, so I pour 2 at a time with guards and Two at a time without. I epoxy the eyes on them for my own stupid ego/confidence lol either way these heads just flat out work for me. skeeter, fshndoug, dtrs5kprs and 1 other 3 1
