Help with lure making - whitebassjig - 01-03-2006
I have been trying to locate the molds for the two "jigging spoons" pictured here. I have checked DO-it molds as well as other commercial mold making sites. I have even attempted to carve my own by hand out of [black]aluminum[/black] block.
The second question I have is the paint on the fat shad lure pictured. It is like a mirrored paint/ dip or something. Unfortunately the maker of this lure has passed and from what I have been told took the process with him.
I would appreciate any insight to the location of a custom or commercial mold as well as the technique used for the mirror type paint.

that paint kind of looks like lure tape.
