Football Head Jigs

[bflow_6]

Is there anyone pouring weedless football head jigs that would like to part with some that are 3/8oz and 1/2oz. Might be interested in some 14/oz too. I am looking for weedless jighead with hooks no skirts

The best football head I've found is Picasso's Fantasy Football Jig.  It has the bottom side textured, and a recessed line tie.  There is a source that has the same mold for dirt cheap.  I'll PM you the info...

I know this is an old thread. But I am looking for a jig mold to make jigs like the Picasso fantasy football jig in 1/2 oz and 3/4 oz. Does any mold manufacturer make one? Thanks for the help.

Thanks for responding smalljaw67. I looked at this mold and it is similar, but not the exact one. I found a post from The Natural, he said he found the EXACT mold.

The one Smalljaw posted is about as close as you are going to get from a hand pour mold. Looking up that Picasso head on Google I can tell you it is from a spincast mold.

Picasso had that mold made, like Munkin said, it is spin cast and not hand poured. If someone for the exact mold it is either a custom that was made to copy it and is a one of a kind or it is a discarded spin cast mold. Most of these companies only have R&D capabilities, they use some type of CAD software and design the head and either use an existing hook or have a special hook made and then they send that information to a bulk manufacturer like cast industries to have them make a spin cast mold and produce the jig in large numbers. There may be a dozen or so know brands that spin casts their own products, but you won't find too many Do-it type molds that are exact replicas of marketed products.
