Anyone have any tips on what mix of plastic to use for pouring Musky Baits? Just poured some 548 from Lurecraft and it seems a little soft.

Your mix of soft and harder plastic all depends on the depth and thickness of your pattern. What pattern are you pouring? Twister? Paddle? I either use the 502, or the 500, and then sometimes use the hardener pending the action your looking for, and the desired hardness and durability you want. Many variables. Some trial and error pouring is essential to get the desired formula of your mold, and pattern.
