How To Make Senkos 

Glad you like the video Garret

It sure is. Very addicting as well.

Thank you buddy. I should have some new videos coming up in the next few weeks.

I will definitely upload videos like that in the near future. This is one of the reasons I make my own senko's. Once the senko is pretty much destroyed i'll remelt them and reuse them over and over again, plus its alot cheaper to make your own once you get the molds and injector.

@@MoorersBaitCompany hi, where can i buy the stuff to create my own senkos?

Eleaf 70W mod. Nothing special lol.

Kenneth Pierce like 25+

Hey Carl. Not really. Ill just set a cup aside and let it cool and if I need that size cup i'll just pull the plastic out after it cools down and wipe the inside down with a dry paper towel. Also check to see if any glitter is suck to the sides or bottom. I have about 20 cups I use, but I do wash them once every 2 weeks. Thanks for watching!

www.Baitjunkys.com is by far one of the best plastic's to use. If you are making alot of white or clear baits i would go with dead on plastics. There plastic does not yellow at all.

Yes you can just melt old senkos. Plastisol is if you want to make brand new senkos

not hard at all. kinda like pushing a turkey baster.

Hey Aaron. What you need to make swirl baits from what ive been told by someone who makes and sells them is a dual injector and you will need to take the top bar out and counter push each injector and this will create the swirl effect. I've never done this or tried it so I cannot vouch and say this works. I see the plastics he sells and they look awesome. So it must.

Also here is the link to a dual injector. store.do-itmolds.com/Complete-Dual-Injection-System_p_1242.html

Hey Mitch. Alot of stuff in this video was from Doit molds but I also buy from MF and lureworks.

I could have been vaping. This is also the 1st video I ever made and I think the gopro was to close to me. TY btw.

ya i said that but i was just being dumb

you would use a laminate plate or dual injector

Hey Andrew. Its a really fine grade salt but regular salt will work but your bait wont be transparent because of how big the salt is unless you use the fine grade. You can purchase the fine salt from this link if interested. www.pouryourownworms.com/Fine-Worm-Salt-1-Gallon-WS32-Gallon.htm

Thanks

thank you buddy. yes sir will do. i have alot of new molds and new things to show everyone. Hoping I have some free time this weekend to make a video.

its plastisol . You can get it from Do-It Molds or Angling AI

Amazon for the mold. Then I use fusionx for the plastics, glitter, and color

It’s just an aluminum bar. I made one at my shop

Most of the colors I use are X2 from Do It Molds. You can also get colors from lureworks and MF. Thanks for the sub. Greatly appreciate it.

I have never tried it before but i honestly dont see why it wouldnt work.

Plastisol and some dyes and glitter you want and molds you can get it from do it molds and an injector

Hey Kevin. I'm gonna post a few links for you. Do-It offers a few starter kits. Here is the link to the starter kit i would recommend. This kit does not come with a mold but has everything you need to get started. You can change the colors of glitter and colorant in these kits to whatever you want. I would check pricing if you broke down the kit just to see what it comes out to compared to the kit price. Starter kit - store.do-itmolds.com/Kit--Start-up_p_340.html Starter kit homepage - store.do-itmolds.com/Softbaits-Starter-Kits_c_37.html Here is a list of everything broke down Molds - store.do-itmolds.com/Molds_c_252.html Injectors - store.do-itmolds.com/Injectors-Gloves_c_255.html (I have the Medium size) Colorant/Glitter - store.do-itmolds.com/Colorant-Glitter-Pearls_c_254.html Plastisol/Additives - store.do-itmolds.com/Plastisol-and-Additives_c_306.html (Softer,Heat Stabilizer,Worm oil) Thermometer - store.do-itmolds.com/Proaccurate-Digital-Thermometer_p_331.html You will need a microwave, gloves, and high temp baking glasses(Anchor or Pyrex). I would start out with a small qty of plastisol just to make sure this is something you want to do. If you have any other questions just let me know. Carolina Bassin'

Did you place a order with them Kevin?

www.doitmolds.com is where most of my glitter comes from.

Hey Kevin. I have 4 of these molds. I dont make them just for myself so I really dont know, but ive already made my money back selling to friends and online. If you fish the GY Senko, it will save you alot of money because it cost around $3 to make a 12 pack with the lay i buy my plastic. Hope this helps.

Yes, it does. I mostly use Yum and Big Bite Baits in 5"/6" stick worms, and Bass Pro for 3" stick worms/NED rigs, so this may not be for me price wise.

You can do a worm like this. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--_MskSuZdk8.html or you can swirl them.

It saves me alot of money in a short period of time. Only thing is the time it takes. Especially when you save your old used worms and remelt and inject again. Cant beat it.

it will run you around $200 to start. That is plastic, color, glitter, injector and mold.

I take it, once you get past that cost, you never have to buy again!

Vang Hang your injector isn’t big enough or your not holding enough after words

I have a few of the $40 dollar senko molds. The $40 dollar is sand blasted and makes a more rugged finish and the $100 is machine cut(Both are machine cut but finished different) and makes a pretty clean bait. Example is a GY Senko is what the $100 dollar mold would make. I think its a waste of money for the $100 mold because a fish isn't gonna pay attention to if the worm is smooth or rugged honestly. Plus the cheaper mold IMO makes a better looking worm but this is my opinion. Hope this helps.

also what size is the injector?

what you see in the video im using is a 4oz injector. I do have the 9.5 oz when I shoot 3 or more molds.

All the dye I buy comes from DoIt Molds. I use there X2 colorant. Ive had no issues with there dye. What do you consider alot of dye? How many drops to oz's? Chartreuse or any transparent color will eventually start to darker or brown after a few reheats. The plastisol stabilizer puts chemicals back in your plastic that burn off after you reheat it a few times. The stabilizer will help keep the color close but it will still darker overtime. I posted 2 links below to what I use. Hope this helps. Colorant- store.do-itmolds.com/X2-Colorant_p_312.html Stabilizer- store.do-itmolds.com/Heat-Stabilizer_p_294.html

Like a quarter of a 8 oz bottle just for a cup of plastic

with the X2 colorant I use 20 drops per 4 oz's of plastic. super bright chartreuse color. honestly its prolly to much colorant. what brand are you using now?

Bears bait colorant but every other color is good just not chartreuse

give do it's a try. i think you will like it.

if you buy the plastic in a bulk size, 5 gallons and up its alot cheaper. you can melt down the used baits and shoot the mold all over again with the same plastic if you save the torn up baits.

prices for just about everything you need can be found here. store.do-itmolds.com/Softbaits_c_251.html

You can get them from Doit molds.

512 Senkos before you melt down the leftover sprues.

Thanks a lot man, I am definitely going to do this.

What type of paint? Are talking about the paint in the background? If so, that is what I use to paint crankbaits.

oh ok thanks

can you use any glitter for them

Yep you sure can. Here is a link to the website I buy my glitter from. You can get glitter or flake from just about anywhere but you need to make sure its high temp glitter. Gonna post another link to the colorant for you. Glitter/Flake- store.do-itmolds.com/High-Heat-Hex-Glitter-040_p_309.html Colorant- store.do-itmolds.com/X2-Colorant_p_312.html Hope this helps my friend. If you have anymore questions, just ask away my friend.

It is a Plastisol made by Do It Molds. Here is a link to the plastisol I use. store.do-itmolds.com/Essential-Series-Plastisol--Bulk_p_1134.html

Carolina Bassin' do u use just the soft plastic or do u mix it with hardener? if so how much do u mix

If its new/fresh plastisol, I do not put anything in it but whatever color and flake I plan on using. Heat stabilizer is used when you are remelting plastic once it is completely cooled down. Add a few drops to plastic and start to heating up process. Worm oil is what you put in the bag you are putting your finished baits/ products in along with the scent of your choice. I will be posting a few videos in the next few days and one of them will be How to remelt plastic for reuse. Hope this helps and if you have any other questions let me know. Thanks for watching and the sub.

The mold used in the video is a Do it molds senko. Here is the link to the mold. store.do-itmolds.com/ES-Senko--Multiple-Sizes-Available_p_1151.html

www.doitmolds.com it where i get most of my supplies from.

Do it molds sells starter kits already made up. Here is a link. store.do-itmolds.com/Softbait-Kits-Certificates_c_257.html FYI colorant and glitter can be changed in the kit if you want different colors. You do not have to go with the colors they offer on the website.

Carolina Bassin' thanks, ill be sure to get one!

Carolina Bassin' thanks, ill be sure to get one!

Hello Luke. You can get the mold from this link. Its the exact mold GY uses. DO IT bought the rights to the mold. store.do-itmolds.com/ES-Senko--Multiple-Sizes-Available_p_1151.html

DM Fishing do they ship to Canada???

Yes Do-It Molds will ship to you in Canada.

I have not but it would prolly put off a very harmful toxic gas. Both of them are 2 different types of material.

Carolina Bassin' I'll put that on the not to do list any ways great video

Vincent Foti it can be rather stinky to use silicone. I find that if I use acetone as a thinning agent, the smell is greatly diminished. Molding quality is good if you use a demolishing agent before casting. Not sure how quickly the plastisol sets up. I can usually have silicone ready to de-molding in 45min to and hour, but typically allow a full 24hrs to cure.

Amazon

Salt is added to the bait, to add weight for it to sink and also for taste. They say adding salt makes the fish hold on to the bait a little longer. I only add salt to sinking baits. The salt used in baits is a fine grade salt not table salt we use on food. Hope this helps.

Hey Brett. If you are referring to what I bought the 1st go round, I started with a gallon. If you are talking about what amount i mix up to shoot a mold, it all varys with how many im making. It takes about 2 ozs to fill the senko mold including the scrap that you remelt. Hope this helps. Any other questions let me know.

Thank you your videos are very informative seen a lot like this yours are the best !

Awesome Brett. Glad to hear that. Ive been really busy at work the past 2 weeks. Ill have a new video posted by this weekend. Stay tuned my friend and thanks for watching.

i agree with you but the mold is the exact replica that Yamamoto sells. Yamamoto sold Do It molds the rights to sell his senko mold. Alot cheaper than the real thing and will last alot longer.

ill do it buddy

Hey Dan. Send me a private message on here. I'll break it down for you.

Carolina Bassin' I messaged on your page

Sorry brother.

😂😂

?

Christopher Edmister I have no idea what you mean, but the fact that you came up with Kanye immediately says a lot about the crowd you follow.

Wasn't tryin to be rude Caro Bassin'. Just seemed a little "fidgety" in the video.

I guess it was just the excitement of making your own Senko's! Good vid man! Enjoyed it!

1st video ever made. Definitely nervous.
