Do-It Minnow Jig Mold 1/8, 1/4oz 7cavity

Building custom jigs from scratch gives you control over weight, hook size, and head shape that mass-produced lures can't match. The Do-It Minnow Jig Mold is a 7-cavity casting mold designed for anglers who want to pour their own minnow-profile jig heads in 1/8 oz and 1/4 oz sizes. Whether you're targeting panfish on light tackle or finesse fishing in clear water, casting your own heads lets you match the exact forage and conditions on your water—and save money in the process.

This mold produces tapered-head jigs with the natural silhouette that predators recognize as a small baitfish. Pair these heads with soft plastic shad bodies, marabou, or bucktail for a finished bait that looks and moves like the real thing. The 7-cavity layout means you can produce multiple jigs in one pour, speeding up production when you need to build a full box of rigs.

Do-It Products molds are standard in the custom-lure community for consistent cavity detail and reliable release. If you tie your own flies, pour your own soft plastics, or hand-tune your terminal tackle, adding jig-head casting to your bench is a natural next step—and this mold covers two of the most versatile weights for light to medium presentations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What soft plastic bodies work with these jig heads?

These minnow-profile heads pair well with small shad-body plastics and other minnow-imitation soft lures. The tapered head design complements streamlined body shapes for a realistic presentation.

Can I pour both weights in the same mold at once?

The mold includes cavities for both 1/8 oz and 1/4 oz heads, giving you flexibility to produce different weights depending on water depth, current, and target species in a single casting session.

What do I need besides the mold to start casting jig heads?

You'll need lead or lead-free metal, a heat source to melt the material, and hooks sized to fit your jig heads. Do-It and other suppliers offer dedicated jig-casting kits with all the core equipment.
