Mr. Garcia, the undertaker on Anastasia island, showed me how to make my first cotton 4 ft shrimp net when I was nine years old. His grandson, Phillip "Bubba" Segrest, had a mold that made 8 round ball sinkers at a time with a skewer rod that went down the middle. Used wheel weights were free at the tire stores.
Awesome !

Very cool. Gonna have to look into a net now
Where can I get one them molds at ?
This is the guy from Netflix the series
Where can we purchase a mole like that
Where could I find these molds? I cant find them anywhere.
They are certainly tough to find now adays. I’m having trouble myself. The moulds we were using in the video were made by mr Usina. He and his buddy Phil were nice enough to let me come over and use them. Every once in a while you see one pop up on eBay. There are other routes to go but they are pricey. The cheapest I’ve found is getting a custom mold made and the cheapest I’ve found someone who will do it was in the ballpark of 250 dollars
That’s a good price, please give me contact information of the mold maker guy.
What is the Dia metirial tell me
