Rick has one similar to the picture that you posted I don't know what he called cricket lady or something like that but I do like the one that you post it here it definitely would have a lot of action for sure I think that would be awesome to see what you come up with working with that bait I'm sure that you will attract a lot of attention especially when you make it into colors that are more like insect larva and also other critters in the water I think this particular bait would be ideal for smallmouth bass I don't know what sizes that you were thinking of I would assume from what you were speaking of that you are wanting the smaller sizes this one in the picture looks about like 2 inch I think this would be also awesome in a 1 1/2 inch this particular plastic bait has the potential of using this one for trout in if it was in the super small category it would be a killer for bluegills.Quote:

Yes I have been looking at this mold and the cricket mold on basstackle, I think I will order the cricket mold soon and maybe the nymph also. I had some almost exactly like these made from RTV silicone a year or so ago but it was just too much trouble to pour them. i was hoping someone would do injection molds of this style. I am glad to see it was accomplished.
he said it was really hard to cut using such a small cutting tool, it takes longer cause the machine has to run slower to keep from breaking the bit.
I know this is true because trying to pour such small detail in the RTV was just a headache.
