The mold has a sprue bar at the top and bottom . I took these lures to a pond . I caught every breed of fish in thAt pond except a catfish. I used white , chart, clear with red fleck. That minnow kicks heck out the water. One thing though add a beatle spin you'll double the catch. Tried poping the reaper under a styro float around stumps and snaggs . Got several keepers if I,d had time to take them home, but I had to go earn money to feed this grocery tumor I've developed around my middle.Fish Candy Bait Company said:I like that crappie reaper. I may have to add that one to my line up. Is that bottom channel just to vent the tails?
It uses about an ounce but you reclaim 50% of that.As far as trimming there isn't any. Just pop them loose from the sprue threads and go fishing.Fish Candy Bait Company said:So you are saying the top and bottom bars fill completely with the extra plastic or just a little exits into the bottom bar? That seems like a lot of plastic to shoot at one time if it fills the bottom bar. Then to trim and remelt. How much plastic did you use or think the mold uses per batch?
Thanks here is another one I'm working on. I'll see about the 1 1/2'' PM me your address.LedHed said:TF
