Injoy the videos big fan and new to bait making me and my son that as autism and loves it we been melting down so old stuff and we oder more hand poor molds and plastic thanks again can't wait until the next for the next video need more tips and advice on making baits thanks

Hey, you should make a vid on how u clean everything for example molds,injectors,glitter off table,etc.

Lol

[@peytonslures6637]

Like those Aluminum ones 😂

[@bobbyhempel1513]

I've been collecting old discarded soft plastics while I'm on my fishing trips as well as keeping my torn and damaged ones that are beyond repair but I cut all of my laminates and a manner that separates the colors as well as possible so that I can eventually melt them down into individual colors instead of blending them all into one potentially ugly color

[@williammahaffey893]

Perfect timing I’m making some homemade bass jigs right now. Love watching your videos while I make them

That was so awesome Chris. I melt some plastics and they come out cool, then I buy some to melt that just look ugly. Lol It's great seeing these remelts and the stick worms were my favorite! Cool job.

With the pending plastic shortage we may all be doing remelts to get what we need. Nice video thanks brother.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Haha yeah let's hope not

Chris these videos are so much fun to watch. I have to agree with you the summer gill stick baits are the Sauce! The Keitech’s came out pretty saucy as well.

🙌🙌

[@jimcoleman9187]

I have boxes of old baits that I planned on melting but like you said the smell was to much! The older powerbaits melt very strange kind of sticky and lots of bubbles but make some great stick worms with that killer powerbait scent! Love the way you cut right thru the package!

Perfect timing brother. Just got back from doing some flats fishing and BOOM a video to give me ideas for next weeks trip

[@amymercurio4284]

What was the oil you were pouring on the pit boss baits before you melted them?

[@stoneysdead689]

Stick worms for the win- for sure, but I like that Gambler color a lot in it's original format. That Yum color reminds me of summer craw or sungill- that color seems to really work well for me around here when they're on bait fish.

[@ziggyblue782]

Quick question: I'm looking into getting a senko mold from bts molds and there is an option for top or side inject. I want the one that injects all the baits from one sprue, so which one do I pick?

I would say side inject, call him and ask

[@brycejerry]

@@WorldsWorstFishing ok thanks!

[@teamfishlineswfl9099]

Great stuff as always !!!

[@TheMoonEcat]

Those yum dingers are nice. It might be a good core shot. Those pitboss color match would look good in a worm style. Now that the color didn't work well as a pitboss. The resulting brown was ok but the yum result was truly the best color.

[@tumbleweedoutdoors1776]

Where do you buy your custom bags

[@t3agan559]

I think that you should color match summer gill. I was wondering if you could could also color match the Googan squads electric shad.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Absolutely..no color is above matching 💪

[@alakiaplays8802]

you should do a color match on the yum dinger before you melted them and after both colors look amazing i'd like to see how you make both styles

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Great idea!!

[@shanehamilton6708]

How much heat stabilizer do you add?

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Not much, just dump a bit in

[@spfbaits]

Is heat stabiliser a must or can you get away with gradually heating say every 35-45 secs and stirring?

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

not a must, but helps a ton with this cheaper production plastic

[@spfbaits]

@@WorldsWorstFishing no worries, I'll probably get some anyways just to be on safe side. I've just got my first hand pour kit, with a few injection molds on the way. I can't wait to get started, have you ever made a swimbait in a Nemo pattern?

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

@@spfbaits yes I did actually, just look for finding Nemo swim bait on KZbin and you'll find it

[@ananonymousangler6678]

Should have tried separating the colours and tried some hand pours to make some better lures via mix matching. Just a thought, cool vid as always though

[@internetcatfish]

So random question here. At the end, you said you can't remelt zmann baits. Why is that? Do you just like them too much, or does it not work well?

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

It's a rubber..it burns

[@Dave_Ehlers]

My son and I are thinking about trying to use some old baits to make a few silicon molds, then melting down other old baits and pouring them using those silicone molds.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Nice nice

[@tinysupreme6417]

Next time I think it would be an interesting experiment for you to take all the runners from each mold and mix them all together to see what color they all make.

[@Florida.Caveman]

So there's a tackle shop that I go to that sells soft plastics by the lb($5) most of them have some sort of defect, air pockets or maybe color didn't turn out the way the company intended and i was told that most of it comes from big brands. Do you think it would be worth it to buy them to just to remelt and make my own baits with? I've never made my own plastics but I'm really wanting to get into it and was curious if this would be a good way to start.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

That actually sounds like a pretty good proposition

[@ddd-ks2mt]

Awesome, Is the mold aluminum? What is the thickness of the mold? Is the hand injector two inch in diameter right? What is the thickness of the mold? It looks very hot. Are there any safety issues?

Hello from Germany! Sorry I can´t understand the concept of melting down brand new baits. It is like burning money for me. Ok it simulates recycling of broken baits. But this would only make sense for me with an colour match of the new and the "recycled" baits. Specially when the new colour looks good like the Yum worms or the Keitech Swing Impact. I specially like productive or better money saving Remelting Videos like: Re-Melting all Of My leftover Plastisol!! How Do They Turn Out??? You as an Softbait scientist or genius You are so good in Colour creating. Show us more Colours Of The Day or colour matching. These videos we all learn the most of You. I have learned so much from You and learning is the reason I have seen every Video from You even the old ones which are no longer availible because of the camera quality in the old times.
