Introduction
Welcome back to the Channel! In today's video, I will be showcasing the process of creating custom fishing baits using molds and injecting plastic. This is a fun and creative way to customize your fishing experience and Create baits that are unique to you. I will be walking you through the steps involved in preparing the molds, mixing the colors, injecting the plastic, and adding the finishing touches to create eye-catching baits. So let's dive right in and get started!
Preparing the Molds
To begin the process, we need to prepare the molds. I have two molds here - one for the pupil and one for the iris. I will be using a normal black color for the pupil and a combination of micro gold and sunset gold for the iris. It's important to preheat both molds to ensure that the plastic adheres properly. Once the molds are heated, we can proceed to the next step.
Mixing the Colors
Now that the molds are preheated, it's time to mix the colors for the baits. I will be using a combination of black and gold to create a unique color combination. After mixing the colors, I will carefully pour the plastic into the molds, making sure not to overfill them. It's important to find the right balance of colors and opacity to achieve the desired effect. Once the plastic is poured, we can move on to the next step.
Injecting the Plastic
Now comes the exciting part - injecting the plastic into the molds. I will be using a 10-ounce bass tackle injector for this process. It's important to be careful and not Apply too much pressure, as it can result in blowback. I will start by injecting the pupil side first, followed by the iris side. Once the plastic is injected, I will let it set for a few minutes before proceeding to the next step.
Creating the Eye Mold
In order to add the eyes to the baits, we need to create an eye mold. I will be using a spray adhesive and a piece of 3M tape for this purpose. After spraying the adhesive onto the tape, I will carefully insert the eyes into the mold, making sure to position them correctly. This will ensure that the eyes adhere properly to the baits. Once the eyes are in place, we can move on to the next step.
Adding the Eyes and Bloodlines
With the eye mold in place, it's time to add the eyes and bloodlines to the baits. I will carefully remove the baits from the mold and place them on a flat surface. Using a sharp blade, I will remove any excess plastic and trim the baits to perfection. Once the baits are ready, I will attach the eyes and bloodlines using a small tool. This will give the baits a realistic and eye-catching appearance.
Unmolding the Baits
After adding the final touches, it's time to unmold the baits. I will carefully remove the baits from the molds, making sure not to damage them. It's always exciting to see the final result and how the colors and Patterns turned out. I will inspect each bait for any imperfections and make any necessary adjustments. Once the baits are fully unmolded, we can move on to the next step.
Reviewing the Results
Now that the baits are complete, it's time to review the results. I will analyze the colors, patterns, and overall appearance of the baits to determine their quality. This is an important step to ensure that the baits meet my expectations and are ready for use. I will also compare them to previous baits I have made and evaluate any improvements or changes that need to be made. This will help me refine my technique and create even better baits in the future.

FAQ
Q: Can I use different colors for the baits?
A: Absolutely! One of the great things about this process is the flexibility to experiment with different colors and color combinations. Feel free to get creative and try out different color schemes.
Q: Do I need any special equipment to create custom fishing baits?
A: While having specific equipment such as molds and an injector can make the process easier, it is possible to create baits using alternative methods. You can create homemade molds using materials like plaster or silicone, and even use a syringe for injecting the plastic. However, using specialized equipment will give you more professional and consistent results.
Q: How long does it take for the plastic to set in the molds?
A: The setting time will vary depending on several factors, including the type of plastic used and the ambient temperature. On average, it can take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour for the plastic to fully set. It's important to wait until the plastic is completely hardened before removing the baits from the molds.
Q: Can I reuse the molds for multiple baits?
A: Yes, the molds can be reused multiple times. It's important to clean them thoroughly after each use to prevent any residue or debris from affecting the quality of the baits. With proper care and maintenance, the molds can last for a long time.
Q: How can I ensure that the eyes and bloodlines adhere properly to the baits?
A: Properly preparing the eye mold and using a good adhesive will help ensure that the eyes and bloodlines adhere securely to the baits. It's important to follow the instructions provided with the adhesive and make sure it is evenly applied. Additionally, allowing enough time for the adhesive to dry and cure before handling the baits is crucial for a strong bond.
Q: Are these custom baits effective for fishing?
A: Custom fishing baits can be very effective for fishing. By creating baits that closely resemble the natural prey of the fish you are targeting, you increase your chances of attracting bites. Additionally, the ability to experiment with different colors and patterns allows you to adapt to various fishing conditions and increase your chances of success.
