Looking for a member or sponsor to make me some blackfish jigs. I have plenty of clean lead for what I’m looking for but I don’t have any molds to make them myself. I don’t need them painted or fancy just want to build up my stock of things I use and get rid of what i don’t

If you can melt the lead yourself pick up sparkie or banana jig molds online for about $35 a piece.

To be honest I’m not a fan of that style jig for black fish. I like the smaller hooks you see on the asylum and jigging world jig. If I could find a mold like that I would attempt pouring my own, however multiple weeks of searching and no luck. The football style is the closest small hook profile I can find

Collins custom molds makes 2 different style blackfish molds you can put what ever size hook you want in.
.
best way to find his molds currently available is on EBAY.
his website doesn't show all of them.

One is a No collar banana
The other is a no collar boxing glove mold

Thanks hammer that’s exactly what I’m looking for. I guess I’ll start a new hobby of melting lead and making jigs...

They are but his stuff is made extremely well .
Even after years of use and thousands of jigs the look like new .
The way he uses earth magnets in the mold also allows you to use a super wide variety of hooks instead if just one .
Once you make 50 jigs with one you broke even on buying them -Premade , and it’s almost free from that point on
