toppwatr · 07-07-10, 02:04 PM

i was reading today in a PA fish and boat magazine about pouring your own soft plastics out of your used and ripped old plastics and would really like to give it a try. does anyone know any good websites of good plastic molds to purchase off of? thanks

I know there are a few, but Del-mart is the only one I can remember right now.

There are a couple guys on here that pour plastics, they'll be able to help you.

I pour and haven't really had much luck remelting and pouring used baits. They tend to be a bit dirty and unless they are all exactly the same color then you get a brown/black result. It's not too bad to get started but it's not super cheap. Molds go for anywhere from $10-125 and you need a heat source (I use hot plates and a big pot from Bear's), pots or measuring cups, a well ventilated area, etc. If you start pouring from scratch then there's quite a bit more to add. Feel free to ask me if you have any specific questions. Also you can find tutorial videos at www.tackleunderground.com
