2.5'' worm (update)
« on: 05/23/14 17:44 UTC »
  You can make a neat little bait by hand pouring the open halves of Do-Its ribbon tail worm mold. This 7" mold makes a 2.5" worm.

That's awesome DF! Gave me an idea of what to do with the bodies when I am using the tails on "two-tones"!

And yet again, the advantages and options of making your own baits is compounded ten fold.  Think of some of the other possibilities out there in some of the very molds you have sitting in the shop...  I love this idea and appreciate your sharing it with us all. 

by the way, those colors look like they will catch some fish, nice work.

He said "Tom and Jerry" ! LOL

Nice V-Tail version - I wonder what it would look like if you made the green part long and slender tapering like a toothpick? 8)

 Turns out hand cutting a stinger tail is hard :)  Out of four this is the best one

D, not sure what You're using to cut them, or how You're using it, but... You may be sliding a blade, slicing, possibly with the tip of a blade.  If that's the current method, and You're wanting a controlled, straight line, try using a razor blade, set the blades sharp edge (not the tip/point of the blade) along the intended cut then press the entire blade straight down.  I have a few modifications I cut this way and it works well for a straight and precise cut.

Very cool. This is my favorite DS bait using the do-it spear tail mold.
