No it laminate's the tail too. DT is very good at hand pouring these baits he is very consistent with his hand pours. I cannot get anywhere close to what he does. If it was not for injectors doubt I would be making my own baits.

Thanks man for the nice words! I feel like the reason that its even most the time is because I pour in the middle of the belly & dont move it as it fills.To me i feel like i get a even & level pour that way.Then i stop the pour a little short of the ''lip'' of the belly half of the cavity

i think its how the mold is designed (1/2 cavity wise). I tried usin just a few drops of blue &when i tried to make a sexy shad frog & it made it look lime greenish on the top untill i added more & more blue color.

Thanks!

i havent seen those in Kentucky lake or Barkley. we have gar though!
