Title: Berkley Powerbait Kicker Frog....Make our own?
Post by: Johnny Bass on 04/15/20 07:30 UTC

What up guys!

I am looking to make my own Kicker Frog?

What material is this made of? Silicone?

Is there a pour or injection mold for this frog so we can make our own?

Is there something that I can add to the plastic that would make this material?
Or is there a separate material I should use to make it?

Hope to hear from you guys!

This frog would be protected 100% by copyright, or patent ....so no luck for you mold or additive-wise.

Dang...Figured

Well then not for this frog but for baits in general.

Is there a silicon material out there that we can use to make baits?

RTV silicone is all over on the internet, just search rtv silicone.  Be sure you look for high temp tolerant silicone though. Has to be able to withstand repeated uses of at least 400 degrees to be durable.

Sweet!
And I would be able to shoot from my gun into a mold?

Open pour would be your best option, but the fish won't care.

Have you used it before, if so, what brand/company did you use?

Or has anyone else here used it before?

www.alumalite.com should get you to the site I think. If it doesn't work do a Bing search for Alumalite. It may be spelled alumilite too.

Okay Tom...
So, I can use the RTV silicone to make the mold. Then I can use the same RTV silicone to make the Frog?
