That large black flake looked way better than I thought it would. I think that would look awesome with a lighter green to look like a leopard frog. Awesome video

Thanks man!! Yeah, I would revise that recipe and pull the Pump/WM down to about 15 next time… really get more of the WM vibe going. 👍👍 Big flake worked out nice!

Thx man! It was a toss up for sure… 3/8 or 1/4 - I knew both would be close to what I wanted, but that darn 1/8 for river smallies just looked too good, so I opted for the smaller. I got some 3/8 0.050 wire forms in, filed out the channel a bit, so hopefully the 1/4 “swims” as well with the big blade!

Tip!!!! I do t think anyone has done a video on!!! For that mold… if you pour enough of them? It gets old cutting the wire form. I figured out where my wire keeps hitting at on the mold. Put it under my drill press and just took enough off on each side of the mold to match the rest of the indent for the wire. Caution!! Only drill out what you need to. Because then your wire form might be able to move a little more in the cavity (gravity). Then No more cutting the wire every time you pour.

I have a question or a challenge. I pour my own jigs and modify my molds as well. I’ve been trying to come up with a way to get a bigger flat head screw type skirt collar on one of the old molds that has the small ball skirt collar. I like the way the bigger taller skirt collar helps the skirt puff out more. I’ve used a Dremel and made the ball style collar bigger before. Just curious about making the reverse flat head screw skirt keeper. I have some ideas but have not dove into it yet.

@@michaelbarbieri9871 not stupid at all my friend! Look for “clean, pure, soft” lead. Some will say “twice cleaned” which is a plus. Pure just means it’s not mixed with tin or other stuff. Soft is similar to pure… no hardener metals added. The pictures of the lead should show nice, silver bricks. If it’s off-color, almost like a rust color, it will has impurities and (in my experience) make a mess of your lead pot. Hope that helps!
