Making a soft plastic fishing lure, The whip tail grub and injection mould
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- I think I am going round in circles but there is never anything wrong with making whip tail or curly tail grubs, let us be honest anything with teeth or a set of gums and fins is either going to want to bite them or give them a nasty suck. Fishing lure fashions come and go but these simple baits have stood the test of time so it was great to try out some of my new mould making techniques and make a step up from the humble worm.
Hand pouring whip tail grubs is always a bit of a compromise as I can never get the tail to standard thickness but with an injection mould this is no problem. Also that combination of polyurethane resin and aluminium means the lures cool quickly so the mould can be set up again for the next round.
Materials
Polymer clay; there are two main brands of this Fimo and sculpey both easy to get hold of from art shops or online.
the resin I used was Easyflo 60 from ebay it can be bought small amounts normally
aluminium powder was again bought from eBay but is standard filler for lots of resins
Some companies like Makelure.com produce ready mixed resins with Aluminium powder, like VAC 50
Soft plastic liquid can be bought from a number suppliers
Europe www.brightbait...
UK lurefactors.co.uk/ lure-solutions...
USA Lureparts.com Makelure.com Bearsbaits.com jannsnetcraft.com

Oh Paul, who's that handsome guy behind the pike scene?
Filip Vydra just some weirdo who was hanging round the lake
As always....very inspiring! Do you know a "habdmade" way of injecting two-tone colours?
BFAC 👊
Yeah! Boom, another great video no matter is you are into fishing or not!
Paul, whats your camera equipment?
Thumbs up amigo!
mostly a sony a77 and a gopro hero session 4
Thanks! I'm a Panasonic guy myself; love your footage!
Hi Paul, another excellent video, a cracking piece of work Lad! Just a Gentle reminder though, you were supposed to be making or attempting to making "Sand Eels" by the way when my wife hears your voice, she says " Is that Mr Super Glue" enjoy Halloween Fella 💀👻👹👍🏻
yes, i tend to change my mind a lot
Yes! You do, but then that's your creative mind at work! 🎣
This guy is always filming high af
hi paul, just wondering if you can help me on this.. plastisol is very hard to get in he Philippines what is the best alternative for plastisol in making soft plastic lures.. if there are any alternative or substitute..
Pme Fil does anyone know if you can use clear silicone thinned with mineral spirits?
Did you put the mold in the fridge for a but to make clean up on the clay easier??
I did actually yes, it was great suggestions, the curing resin really heats up the modelling clay, thanks
Hello, what material was used for the form itself.
top suas isca gostei 🖒
Great watch as always! How long does a video like that take you to make? Cheers
about week, too long, i spent the day editing it or polishing it, way too long, not sure how long i will be able to carry on for it makes no financial sense
Thats ok then, my last few attempts at filming have been complete crap with no planning so now I don't feel so bad! You have the videos monetised? Perhaps flog some merch?
I use the guy who made these songs for all my videos on my fishing channel
i want to try, where i could buy soft plastic
check the video description, it gives some suppliers
ok
For what siliconen use the brand.?
see the description
Great video was wondering do you ever eat the fish you catch
mackerel, pollock, cod, trout
Thanks for the reply
have you tried using that polymorph plastic to make original?
yes it works the trouble is the resin give off heat when curing and remelts the polymorph, but it would work with plaster of paris
i didnt know it heats up on cure mainly i just poor and stick it in shed until next day, i got tentacle things from link you gave me. umm i got some plaster paris as arthritis in hands and making that Plasticine stuff soft hurts like hell it was why hoping polymorth would work. thanks for info
how much aluminium to you add to your resin cheers
equal amounts to part one of the resin
Do u have t shirts with ur logo on ???
