not sure whether you can buy mold or not but what i am in the process of doing is making a wood model(for lack of a better word) and i will push that into plaster of paris. after the plaster dries ill have the shape of the lure in the plaster. epoxy that to make it smooth like thill said above. im sure freshwater soft plastics will work, wash them off in soapy water before and dry them. i tried melting a plastic powerbait worm. all of the oil stuff floated on top of the plastic it was messy. i did it again after washing and it worked fine. sort of smelled funny though. im going to stick to plain unscented from now on. hey, salt water fishing isnt that much of a challenge you just have to be ready for the big fish. dont throw away your rubber worms they work well for stripers and blues, they think their sandeels.

live to fish. fish to live. rod tips high.
