    Default Horsehead Mold Modification


    Modified Horse Head Jigs



    I got my dremel out and modified the horse head mold to accept the w- 400 wire keepers. I believe they hold the soft plastics much better than the cast lead keepers on the pony head mold.

    Look good - and if you didn't want them you'd just have to trim the extra lead off for tying. I've seen a few just put a piece of wire next to the hook shank close the mold and it with a rubber mallet and did the same thing. On another board a guy pinned his mold to have recessed eyes which was pretty cool.

    definitely a good ideal I like the fact that you can put on a twister tail and keep it on also I like the larger blades I think you have a good one there.
