Looks like someone found the ice bait selection. Good work Rex.

All of those baits are super ice fishing fish food by the way. And the glow red does a nice job of glowing.

So if a guy wanted the tails to be different colors from the body, would he cut them, put back into mold and shoot with other color?

Yepper that’s the best way to do it on larger baits I can hand pour some tails then shoot but the mold has to be set up just right to do it

What’s  great about the wax wiggler mold is if you leave the runner in you can shoot just the big side or the other way around and just the small ones. The large one is down sized by pinching a ball at a time. I have 2.375” wedge mold that is cut to fit the fish your after an what there willing to take. When ice fishing I use a # 12 or smaller hook 10” up from the jig and both have plastic on them. Most of the fish come on the top hook.

Nice baits! The glow in the dark are super effective for crappie at sunset on the ice. I make them clear with just a little bit of rainbow glitter the glow in the dark powders.

The Nano is my go to drop shot bait for bluegills during the summer.
