So I haven't gotten or given anything on the paying it forward yet.

So once I get time I plan on making some panfish plastics. I thought I could Baggie up a few for guys and send them in an envelope.

So, once I get around to making some, anybody want a few!





Argo,

I'd take a few from you if you make enough.

Ok so I sent out envelopes with a small snack bag like above with the plastics. To those who will be getting them. The plastics have a coating of panfish jelly scent on them.

Agronomist, your plastics do look very nice, would you share how you make them or how you got started in making them.

I started by doing some lead weight pours due to river fishing and losing sinkers. Then got into spoons and stuff, then when I was making lead heads figured I might has well make the twister tails for walleye fishing. Now I'm making all kinds of plastics, lures, and painting crank bait bodies.

Sounds like a interesting hobby. Do you make your own molds for your plastics?

Jacobs makes nice stuff. You've made an investment...  ;)

Yep, been well worth it. I got a lot of molds to make plastics and lures now.

What is nice is that the lures and plastics cost cents if that to make. I think I figured it up one day and to make a lead head with a twister tail for fishing the river and lakes it cost me like $0.15-$0.20 cents. What is also kinda cool is when the plastics get all ripped up I put a new one on and throw the old ones in a tub. Then remelt the old plastics to make new ones......sometimes a guy gets a funky color with remelt a thought.

When it comes to the panfish plastics the plastisol a guy uses to make them is huge. I can't remember the exact name but it was like MF super soft. The softer the plastisol a guy uses the more action you will get with the tails/Limbs when jigging. Down side is they rip up easier.

If anyone in SW Lower Mi is looking for a couple free rod/reel combos PM me. I upgraded a couple older rods and thought this would be a good way to pay it forward.
