Ice Jigs

[fuzzyray]

Hey all. I know this is an off season topic, but it's something that has been on my mind for far too long! This winter I made up a mess of leadheaded jigs. I got the mold from my dad. It got me thinking that it would be nice to make some ice jigs as well. Does anyone know if there are any molds available for this? I've done quite a bit of searching with no success. Also, anyone know of any local sources of lead for making jigs? I live near St. Cloud. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Yah i know there is a bait store called trails end in fridley off central they have lead bars too but they are a ways away, also I have seen all that stuff on hsolist. Or if you have a special mold you need made I could do that for you. I know i have seen a store online with all the stuff you need also but cant remeber the Site name.

cabelas or bass pro have lots of molds ect...for a lead supply stop in at a tires plus or goodyear shop, they have buckets of used lead wheel weights

I've heard that you can get lead at a tire place but what about the quality of that lead. Would it be fairly pure? Also, I have checked most of the major fishing supply dealers and found only molds for larger jigs. I am looking for a mold to make the smaller ice fishing jigs (hook size #10 or so). ICE_FISHING_KING, what would be the cost of having a specialty made mold? Have you ever made such a mold before. I was wondering if pouring such small jigs is even feasable/practicle? Thanks for your responses, keep them coming!
