Do it molds

 Just wondering if anyone has had a dabble with making their own butterfly jigs and how you get on. I have recently bought a 5 ounce butterfly jig mold from Do It Molds and poured a couple of jigs, spray painted them and stuck on some reflective tape. Does anyone else make their own here and do you have any luck? I haven't had a chance to get out for a while and want to know if I'll be wasting my time.

Nice bit of handi-work Fraser. Those do-it molds are top quality.

Looks good.

Given things such as spanners a shifters work I have no doubt they'll catch fish in the right situation

I have even caught fish on the old barrel sinker scrapped with a knife to make it shiney and with a treble tied on the rear.

Give it a shot

Cheers

Nothing is better than turning scrap metal to shiny colorful tackle, and even better feeling when they work ... IMO ...

Like it mate, and nice work!
