Power-bait Mold: Customizable

This is The Power-bait Mold, the perfect tool for everyone!

********************** **********************

Power-bait is used primarily in trout fishing so I designed this to have shapes that resemble a trout or sunfish's diet. There is a grub to resemble the larvae that they commonly eat, a few sizes of balls and a teardrop to appear like eggs in the water, and a mold for small pellets if your trout are stocked and are used to pellet food. This covers most of the basics but I created this model with customizability in mind (instructions to make your own shape at the bottom).

Assembly

1. Snap together

2. Snap in molds

3. Repeat then Done!

So how do you use this?

In order to make consistent shapes you need to follow a few simple steps.

1) Get the correct amount of Power-bait:

You don't need as much power-bait as you may think, a good rule of thumb is just slightly more than the size of one half of the mold as shown in the picture.

2) Squeeze hard:

To make sure that you have a piece that stays together in the water, you need to make sure you squeeze hard and maintain pressure for ~3 seconds.

3) Remove the Power-bait and get fishing:

The next step is to simple take the powerbait out of the mold and hook it onto your hook like any other soft plastic, the pellets also work great on a jig/fly!
