Looking for a mold for 1/2 oz, 3/0 60 degree tube jigs for deep water smallies or cracking a tube.  Those Bite Me Jigs at $1+ per are too much considering how often I lose them.  Any info is appreciated.

Check Ebay under CNC-works aka Shawn Collins.

Since you are fishing deep sallies my guess is you’re around rock piles etc.  and snags may be an issue.  I slide a bell sinker inside my tube and then Texas rig it.  If the bell sinker is too big you can also use a tungsten weight.

I have a Do It for 3/8 oz 90° hook.  I’ve used it to 60’ for winter spots on Table Rock.   If you can’t find what you are looking for you may be able to use one of them.

If you've found a jig style you like but are turned off because it uses a 90 degree hook you can always modify the mold. It's so easy to change the hook eye position in most molds - as long as the mold doesn't require you to pin the hook eye to keep it clean that is. All you need is a dremel.

Of the 20+ molds I have I think only a handful haven't been modified. The extra hook eye positions just fill with a little tab of lead when you pour the jig that you can twist right off.

I also mark slots for wires so I can make spinnerbaits with many of my jig molds, though I imagine a tube jig might not be one you'd want to turn into a spinnerbait.

RTV silicone is what I use to cover voids in modified molds.

There are several weedless bass jig molds that would fit inside a tube. If there is a style u like, you can just mold without the weedguard sovthe jud will fit inside the tube.
