Subject: new to lure making.. a few questions..

ive been tossing around the idea of trying to make some soft plastic lures.. but im not sure how to attach hooks in the body and keep it in the center and what i am supposed to use. i know that you make your lure out of clay then make a plaster mold but im not sure how to pour the plastic with the hooks in the center.. any info would be great. thanks

What type of bait do you plan to make? The mold you make should hold the exposed part of the hook in place as well as the hook hangers with the internal parts (wire, weight, etc.) suspending inside the mold.
