Okay, so I finally got my hands on the FatFish V21-3C bait mold, and let me tell you—it’s a game-changer for lure-making newbies like me. First off, the mold itself feels super sturdy. No flimsy silicone nonsense here—this thing is made of some high-quality artificial stone that can take a beating.
The air vents? Genius. No more weird bubbles ruining my lures. The detail on these swimbaits is insane—like, aluminum-mold-level crisp. And yeah, it works with most injectors, so no extra hassle there.
BUT (and there’s always a but), the tails stick like crazy if you don’t oil the mold properly. Learned that the hard way. A little mold release or Vaseline fixes it, though. Also, clamping it tight before injecting is a must unless you want plastisol everywhere.
Final verdict? For the price, this mold slaps. Made some killer bass lures already, and I’m obsessed with tweaking colors and scents. Just… oil it. Trust me.
