I am looking at getting a 1/4 round do it jig mold. They have three different types of 1/4 oz round jig molds - one has a wire keeper one has a single lead keeper an one has double lead keepers I fish Midsouth an Bobby Garland jigs which mold do you recommend Thanks
I do a lot of casting. I stick with the single barb myself. A wire weed guard will add a bit more in cost and is one more step in casting. For the cost of what a lead head that I pour costs I don't worry about popping a head off it need be. I will try to push it off with the rod tip but if it is out of reach POP! Also if you use different sizes on a regular basis you might think about buying production molds. That way you can pour 8 heads of the same size at one time. Heat your mold on the lead pot as the lead melts. A hot mold will work much better with a small cavity.
Here is the one I have and like better barb.
Round Head Jig - PRO-104 - Sz: 1/4 - Hk: 630 or 635 - Collar: Barb
That's the same style I pour on all of my crappie jig hooks.
