The Skull Underspin Jighead experiment

Published at : 18 Dec 2025

I have made a few skull jigheads over the years but this time i thought and jazz things up with a willow underspin blade. Not sure if the fish will appreciate the effort or the creepy design, but who cares it looks like the kind of evil that will catch something.

The mold was designed in cad (fusion360) using a free skull scan from thingiverse an online design file host for 3d printing, It was then heavily modified to to make it solid and add the hardware like hooks and keeps and eye for the underspin. I then 3d resin printed a two part master i could pour heat resistant silicone into to give me the mold.
