Anyone know where to find FB jig molds with the recessed ties (Like the Picasso Fantasy FB Jigs)?  I'm about to get started with home pouring and everything I've seen online (Do-It, etc.) has the conventional style, any help appreciated.  Also, any other mold recommendations or general advice would help me out, I plan on ordering most of my startup equipment from Do-It in a few weeks. 

Thanks!

Thanks Munkin, I like the looks of the Do-It brush jig and plan on ordering a mold for it but that one looks a little more on the Arkie end of the spectrum than the football end, lol.  In reality that recessed line tie will probably save you more hangups on a brush/flipping jig than it will on an FB style anyway just because of where you're throwing it but I stilll want to try and find that style in an FB head also. 

I just know there are several of the recessed FB heads on the retail market right now, there's gotta be a mold out there somewhere for it :)

I just thought of another one I'd like to find, something close to a Sworming Hornet Fish Head Spin.  I know Do It has the Roadrunner style molds but I'd like to find some of the Fish Head style.

Already working on this one, hopefully I can find time to work on it today.

As for the recessed line tie football jigs they are most likely spincast.

Thanks for that link Munkin.  I had already looked at the Fish Head jig mold Do-It offers and was actually thinking of the same modification you mentioned in the other thread, adding a wire out the bottom to put the spinner on. 

Check out the pics of the Buckeye SuSpin and the Reaction Innovations bait on this link, they are both done that way, looks like a no brainer :)

Yep, that should work great.  How do you modify the mold?  I don't actually have any yet but I was thinking I could close the mold and then just drill a hole where I want to add the wire for the spinner, is that basically correct?

Dremel and a small triangle file is what I have used in the past.
