Crappie Grub

After the failure of my last try at a crappie bait I decided to make something simple thats tried and true…. a grub.  I wanted something small to target crappie with so the overall design is about 2″ long with a 7/8″ body.

While it’s mainly a basic grub the body shape is not your typical design and I did two versions where one has little fins or wings on it (just to be different) and you never know they might have  little action.

Here’s the mold design in a 2 cavity test version just to speed up printing times.

There are some weird side vents for the little wings on this version.

This would be the full 8 cavity mold if all goes well.

The first test mold after printing.

The first injection… So far so good.

Here they are after clean up.

Overall size.

Ready for testing… I just have to get it in the water as soon as it warms up outside.

To be Continued…
