Making molds for plastics

I couldn't wait to try to make a mold after talking to
GS on Saturday. Got mixed results, the 10" sluggo mold came out mint but the 10" Fin-S fish mold was screwed up. GS, I tried using Pam before pouring resin it made the Fin-S fish come unglued from the pan.They were floating in the resin. Probably cause I overloaded the pan I think, I did salvage one of two on the Fin-S fish. I haven't got my plastic yet so I cooked up a bunch grubs on the hot plate to try the molds.I'm encouraged by the results, with the right plastic they should be fine. Am going to make another Fin-S fish mold and be a little more careful this time. Am thinking that Squid strips would make a good candidate also. Thanks for all your info GS a big help. ...mrpogie
