Who makes the best senko style molds
« on: 03/23/15 18:18 UTC »
Hey everyone new to this site and to pouring. I was wondering who makes the best senko style molds from looks of the bait to the specs of the bait. Also what is the dia of the carrot vs the senko the carrot seems to be a bit bulkier. Any insight would be appreciated also pics would be great to be able to compare.

Well it seems like Do-it would have the best Senko mold now since GY gave them permission to make it according to GY specs.

  Duh ! But seriously it is the best senko mold on the market. I have one and it pours great. And buy HD additive, you'll want it.

I have a number of different stick molds and the one I used all winter was the Essential Series GY Senko mold. It exactly meets the specs and I really like the bait it makes.

I'm a big HD additive fan and using the Essentials plastic you get a really tough bait.

No one and done!

  The ES molds do have a little more texture. I just make baits for myself so I think they are just fine. To be honest if I was making them to sell I would go with the CNC cut molds. I bought my senko mold before the ES molds came out and it makes a really nice senko. But the ES mold is only 40 bucks and that's hard to beat for a guy making his own baits.

Here's a link to a thread that has TON to say concerning the Essential Series Senko mold.
