Post by: bigjim5589 on 12/10/22 22:55 UTC: I have a lot of molds too, some are older & discontinued, but I get a lot of enjoyment from making tackle, and it's hard to put a price on that.

I don't have a Weedless Wally, although have been looking for one for quite a few years now. If they'll sell for that kind of prices, I can do without it. It would be cheaper to modify a regular Walleye Jig mold, or buy a CNC custom mold for the same style.

no need to get a custom cnc mold made, fat guys fishing and kerby design (they are on facebook) both make a cnc similar (some say improved) to this.

The pours in their pictures make me think those molds are bad. Very rough and inconsistent looking.

i cant speak for the kerby molds or the pnut jig from fat guys, but i have several molds from FGF and they are among the best in the business, they are not, however, great at pouring the molds they make!

I'm aware of both mold makers. That's really what I had meant by custom.
