Had some time today to tinker with a prototype mold that's been in the works for the last several months - this is actually version 3, with several more versions sketched out on paper.

Making baits in the garage is a painful addiction…

Pretty. I like that ball tail Idea. How long are the baits? Those remind me of a sand eel jr.

The baits are 4.5". I can make almost any color. Laminates are tough, but can be done. Just a very slow process until I get my larger production molds in...

Chris, I can try my best. The oil can you guys are referring to is a core shot. I can't do core shots with my mold but if you find another color that is close I can match it. Color options are just about endless...

Here's a pic from the first time I ever fished with one a couple of months ago. First fish caught on the bait went a little over 4. Not a bad way to break it in.

Day will live in infamy as it was the day W split two waders on a drift :*****:

I believe this was a certain day that someone broke down.

Don't worry about it. I am just jerking your chain Micah.

Right now I am not charging as I am waiting on my larger production molds to get in. Until that time I couldn't even begin to set a price given the amount of time it takes to make them with my prototype mold.

If you want some samples and have a color in mind let me know. We may just end up selling them on our website on a custom basis.

Thanks

evidrine 05-23-2011 03:00 PM

If you can spare a couple samples I would love to try them out. If you got something that will work in muddy water of the coast that would work.

jlincecum 05-23-2011 06:56 PM

send me a few, I'll give em a shot.

evis102 05-23-2011 07:09 PM

Clear with gold flake or Bone with silver flake would be pimp.

I like they way you think - easy enough!

Been out of town but had some time last night to play around with a few of the requested colors. My camera on my phone doesn't do the colors justice, but colors from top are as follows:
  • Bone
  • Natural Shrimp
  • Gold Rush
  • Oil Stain
Received pricing on my new molds so hopefully they will be available soon.

In honor of an insider SC joke, I think I am going to name the bait, the Poptail :D

SaltyShaw 05-31-2011 01:43 PM

Looking good Micah!

Poptails are loaded up and ready for the shootout tomorrow. If you see 4 guys arguing with each other in a white Triton give us a shout.

SaltyShaw 06-03-2011 10:25 PM

I didn't get my baits for the tourney :(

Thanks guys. The poptail started out strong for us yesterday and Gold Rush was one of the colors I threw.

One step ahead of you on the glow with silver flake/chartreuse tail. I have a separate tail mold to inject different colors. Working on a laminate as well...
