Here is a pic of a few 5 oz er's. Also, One finished Spinnerbait, 5 oz.

Was thinking of building on one of these for the Lure Contest during the Muskie shows...But heard nothing about it? Hmm, Maybe the Webmaster might Know? Maybe?

Those all look great! Do you poi the lead and or make the lead head mold? I would love to see a heads with bigger skirt collars so nothing could slip past them.

Looks nice, do you just make a loop, and ad the hook with a split ring, an keep it in place with shrink tube?

Todd, Yes, the minnow heads , (Custom pours) , top pic have a large collar for Multiple dressings if you wish. With that said Todd, if using silicone skirts, I still make a few wraps with E thread, to solidify your skirting. Don't want to get caught with your Pants down:)

Zinox; Yes, Wire is tied on hook then Tubed multiple times. Gives you versatility. Gives you the ability to change hook if need be, and adds room for multiple dressings which is needed on this 5+ oz head. Also, tying on tubing may help give your bucktail hair a bit more flare.

This pic shows that you have almost 2 inches of tying area from collar to hook . My friends love tying on these customs, because you have the room to tie a very full skirt if you wish!!!
