I guess I don't see the need to use a lead head jig when making marabou lures. A simple marabou streamer, minus a lead jig head, can be rigged as a pseudo wobble head, Tokyo rig, a power shot or drop shot and so on. You control the position in the water column by the length of the leader to the weight. Also, this allows you to easily fish the weight you need to , for the rod and reel you already have. Practically endless variations are easily rigged .. plus the marabou streamer can be fished in a normal horizontal presentation, rather than the yoyo movements forced by the jig head.
You’ve shown me a new way of using my poison swing tail mold with this chatterbait option! Thank you! The poison tail jig mold is another great option to make chatterbaits as well, just use the WEY375 wire form for the eye when pouring the 3/8oz jig because the WEY575 is too big (I tried after watching another RU-vid tutorial that suggested using the WEY575 when it should’ve suggested WEY375) and look into getting 1/8” Teflon pins for this jig mold. It has a useful bait keeper too. I’m a huge fan of Owner hooks as well! Can’t wait to try this setup out
Been wanting to get into doing this and pouring my own soft plastics, too. Seeing that street sign in the background convinced me to follow ya. My Brother's a guide up there and I sure miss that GL fish'n.
Just 2 cents worth... when you poured your colors into the duel cylinders, the plastic was just not hot enough. It had lumps and should have been far more liquid in viscosity. It is no wonder that you could not get all the molds filled before the plastic cooled. Just curious, what temperature do you seek before pouring?
If you don’t have the equipment it’s definitely an investment! I actually did a video breaking this down on my other channel: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YBaQoVveCN0.htmlsi=NBPrPLECrsRJy5gZ
@@BaitMakingChannel Diseases, the two major ones are psittacosis, and histoplasmosis. Psittacosis is a bacterial infection transmitted by inhalation of dust from the bird's feces or feathers. Histoplasmosis is a fungus that grows on bird feces, and transmitted in the same way.
Sooo. I just got into doing crappie jigs. Want to do some of these for smallmouth. Marabou vs bucktail (synthetic as well). Would they flow the same? Easier for me to get bucktail and synthetic. Instead of marabou.
Awesome mold, I bought 2 so I could shoot 8 at a time. They cost less than a single 3 cavity CNC mold Those I-craws work great on a ned rig, smallies love them.
I'm having a significant problem after about pouring and power coating about 35 heads. The extra lead under the eye was cleaned with an Ignition Point File. The problem is that after placing the blade on the eye I'm now not able to close the eye far enough to PREVENT the blade from slipping out of the space between the eye wire and the jig body. I tried to close the eye with pliers and that caused the powder coat to show marks from the pliers. I then tried using a small hammer and placing the jig on a wooden table and the eye still is open. I'm quite frustrated and don't know how to close the eye. Any help would be appreciated.
Awesome channel man! I’m in the process of putting together a little “bait laboratory” at my house and look forward to trying my hand at these. I was wondering what modifications you made to your mold to accept that trailer keeper though?
Another way to do this is to tie it (like a fly)…I keep all my jig tying and fly tying stuff in the same place. You can actually be even more precise about placement with a few wraps of thread, adjust, tighten…add another color, adjust, tighten…repeat. I have a few patterns that are 4-5 colors and I have to imagine it would be a lot tougher to get them to fade correctly if I wasn’t tying them. The nice thing is that vices, bobbins and threads are cheaper than ever…you can buy a whole setup for less than $50 to start off then upgrade to something like a regal or renzetti if you find that it’s something you really like to do.
LOVE THIS COLOR TRIED TO ORDER SOME BUT THEY DONT SHOW THEM SELLING ANYMORE. DO HAVE IN THE SMALL TUBE BAIT. NOT BAD PRICE BUT $18.99 TO SHIP TO BAGS HELL WITH THAT
Do you mind if I ask what hook you are usuing in the weedless sparkie jig?? It looks like you are usuing a different hook than what the mold calls for, (eagle claw 410) I am super interested as I'm not a fan of the 410......thank you. I saw you on my buddy Sean's live stream Reel Northern Bass....you were awesome, hope to see you do it again!!
