I think that this is one of those projects where you have to spend money so you can enjoy what you spent your money on.  Right Jim?

 It is kind of like fly tying, pretty cool to catch something on something you made.

  Jerry nailed it. This is one of those projects where you have to spend money so you can enjoy what you spent your money on.
No logo Slag

[slagmaker]

Bummer on the logo.

But I do love the fact of catching on what you made with your own hands.
I use the ribbit brand of frogs and have had enough luck with them that I bought several packs of them. Until I saw this thread I had no idea you could make your own. Do yours hold up as well as the store bought?

[FinsnFur]

I havent used them enough yet to tell Slag. You can make soft ones which tear easy but flop a lot, or tough ones which last a long time but are stiffer.  There's three types of plastic. Soft, medium and hard. Which hook do you use? Thats a lot of what really determines how long they last.

Thats a helluva good price Nasty. Those aluminum molds are expensive. I bet his aluminum molds alone are worth close to $400. The stone ones on the end are real inexpensive.
Too bad He dont have I feel like I need.
I do like the double barrel injector. You can mix colors are fill two molds. 

[nastygunz]

 Looks like he gave up on his pouring.

[FinsnFur]

Yah he must have.
As soon as it gets warm enough around here I'll be back out there injecting molds
Cant cook that stuff in the house or I'd be doin it now.

[FinsnFur]

Grape with black flake.
Licorice scented.
Sure wish we would quit flooding out so I can use some of the baits I've been molding. I'm gonna get over run with plastic baits lol

[FinsnFur]

Thanks!
Waiting on some more molds. Coming from the Ukraine
Tracking says they went through NYC on the 17th. Geez that was over a week ago.
Maybe they are delivering them on a bicycle 

[nastygunz]

 The NSA probably waylaid them and is going over them with a fine tooth comb wondering why you're getting shipments from the Ukraine 

[FinsnFur]

Thats not funny Nasty. Something is fishy.

See what I did there? 

[nastygunz]

If you get overrun, just send the extras down this way. I will take care of them for you.
