Lead Casting Mold F15 – Spin Jig 40-60g

Product detailed description

The Your Mold F15 lead casting mold produces 40, 50 and 60 g Spin Jig lures. Its three separate cavities cover the heavier end of this range. Add a rotating blade and a hook to the casting to build a compact tail spinner for longer casts and controlled retrieves where water resistance is higher. Use it for asp, larger perch and zander when the conditions and the rest of your tackle suit these weights.

A tail spinner combines a small prey silhouette with flashes and vibration from a trailing blade. The body supplies the weight, while the blade turns on a swivel as it moves through the water. Blade size and shape affect resistance and the speed needed to start rotation. After casting, let the lure reach your chosen layer and begin with a steady retrieve. Short lifts and changes of pace alter the presentation; maintain contact on the fall, as blade action depends on the actual rigging.

Start with 40 g when it provides enough casting distance and control. Move to 50 or 60 g for stronger current, longer casts or a deeper retrieve. Weight alone does not define working depth: the blade, line diameter and retrieve speed also matter. For a longer fall and a lighter load on the rod, compare F151 in the Spin Jig and tail spinner mold range.

The manufacturer specifies “smal” cast-in loops, item 7208, sold by SAF as stainless steel size 05 loops. Keep the full designation when selecting components; size 1 with a different item number is not an automatic substitute. The illustrated swivel is item 3008, rated at 13 kg. Seat the loop and swivel in their correct recesses and check that the mold closes fully without force. The swivel rating is not a rating for the complete lure.

The eye recesses take 5 mm stick-on eyes. Finish the casting with a suitable lead coating according to its instructions, keeping attachment points and the rotating part of the swivel clear. The manufacturer lists a 21 × 16 mm Spin Blade as an accessory. Select the hook and connecting ring to suit the body and leave enough clearance for movement. The hook point must not catch the blade. Test the first completed lure in the water to check blade start-up and unwanted spinning.

Casting weights and components

The listed lead weights are without the blade. Weigh the completed lure to establish its final weight; a different casting metal also changes the result. The table lists components for this mold. A swivel rating does not rate the complete assembly.

Select loops or inserts, swivels, hooks, rings, blades, eyes and coatings separately; they are not automatically included with the mold. Check one complete lure before casting a batch. Similar products start with other Spin Jig molds, followed by jig molds for a different lure type. Each uses the components specified in its own description.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Is the stated weight the weight of the complete lure?

The manufacturer states weights without the blade. Weigh the finished assembly; the components and casting metal affect its final weight.

Which cast-in loop does this mold use?

The manufacturer specifies “smal” item 7208, sold by SAF as size 05. Size 1 with a different item number is not an automatic fit.

Must I fill every cavity at once?

No. Prepare only the cavity you need and check the first casting and complete rigging before making a batch.

Why does the blade fail to rotate on a slow retrieve?

Check swivel movement, clearance from the hook and blade size. Start-up also depends on the speed of water flowing past the blade.

When should I choose another mold?

If 40 g is too heavy for a lighter presentation, compare F151 16–30 g. Choose weight according to lure control and the casting range of your rod.
