Rick just come out with a brand-new mold that you mold they jig head into the plastic this is a two-part thing you will have to buy the lead mold for the heads also by the plastic mold for the body I added a picture here for you to look at.

Looks like the old Do-It tube jig head mold that made three size's. Tube Skirt Jig - Sz: 1/8, 1/4, 3/8 - Hk: 570 or 575 - Collar: None the one shown is the 1/4th oz. the mold is only set for aberdeen hooks so if you want a heavier hook you'd have to mod the mold.
Reminds me of baits I fished in the 60's.
I like it and would be nice to have in that 2 inch shad mold.
I agree with you a 2 inch would be fantastic even in the swim bait I hope that you'll be able to by jig heads for the 2 inch would be nice.Quote:

A little locktite holds it in place.Interesting thoughts........time to play around with the concept. hmmmmmmmm works for me. :Rofl Close enough for government work. :Rofl

I think they'll catch just as many fish Mike.
I insert a small finishing nail to make it sit right in the water Bob.Quote:
