Questions about Berkley Dough Bait Mold

A 12/16 so is it 3/4 '' ball ???

Answer: Hi, they come in a pair and the 12/16 refers to the size of hooks. One can accommodate #12 treble hook and smaller and the other similar #16 hooks and smaller. They work good and fom a perfect floating powerboat ball without much mess or waste.

what size and hook used

Answer: There are two sizes in the package. I use the smaller of the two most of the time for trout. I think we use number 12 or 14 treble hooks. We love them.

Answer: I use a size 14 treble hook with the larger mold. Not sure about the size for the small mold, as I haven't used that one yet.

Answer: Size 14 treble hook

Answer: any size

Product reviews of Berkley Dough Bait Mold

Thundar11 : Good product

Very happy with this purchase.

michael rowland : Five Stars

Molds a perfect ball every time, good accessory

Jaime Vargas : Gotta have it for powerbait

These are great to bait your hooks with. Simple to use, dough stays on the hook, don't get your scent on the bait. Highly recommend this to anyone using dough bait

Anthony L. Williams : Mold That Bait

Made using Powerbait a breeze, doing it by hand can be a PITA for an occasional weekend warrior fisherman like myself and those I fish with. A little pricey for what it is but it gets the job done.

Hondo : Clean hands!

A nice little devise to a in getting the bait to the hook without handling the bait yourself when fishing for trout!

Kindle Customer : Works great

Makes perfect balls and don't have to worry about the smell on your hands

Walt : Bait mold

Only cheap ones I found

casehardened : neat little scoops!!!!

neat little scoops!!!!

Hawk78 : Not very useful

These are more of a gimmick than an actual useful tool. Makes a bigger mess then if I just use my fingers to scoop it out. Designed to work with treble hooks and not snell hooks.

Makes perfect balls and don't have to worry about the smell on your hands

Amazon Customer : Useless.

Bait sticks to these clamps more than the hook. Save a dollar and use your fingers.

Kyle : Good ideas with Flaws

Not impressed. Good idea with flaws. Bait will not stay on the hook when you are trying to remove the ball from the mold. Still gets on my wife's hands which is what she wanted to avoid. i will not buy this again

Nice

grrrrrutah : Ladies (and guys with big fingers) gotta get it!

Just barely bought this, haven't used it in the field yet... but tried it at home and think I'm gonna like it! HATE getting trout bait under my nails (yeah I'm a girly girl who loves to fish!) where it usually hardens and need a jackhammer to get it out...this mold makes just the right size ball to disguise your hook, and is easier to use than the last trout mold I bought which was the tube shape you twist down into the bait to get a chunk. Can't wait to use this at the lake!

Brad H. : At first this felt like a bit of a gimmicky item

At first this felt like a bit of a gimmicky item, but after using it for a 4-day trip I got the hang of it and actually liked it. It won't leave your hands totally clean or remove the need to contact the bait, but it does produce better results with a little less mess than doing it by hand.

I found this works best by placing your hook into the slot, holding the line to keep the hook solidly in place, and use the hook side to scoop out the bait. You'll still need to mash down or remove the little bit of excess, but works better than it seemed in initial impressions.

Digital : Some times its better to do it by hand

Dough gets stuck a lot of times. Some times its better to do it by hand. But it does get the exact portion every time.

revrace24 : Five Stars

Perfect for scooping my dough bait.

Jennifer K. : Very nice find!

Love these! Sometimes powrrbait can become gooey these are nice as it doesn't get all over your hands

LEM : Works great - just what I needed.

Works as expected. Compact and easy to store in my fishing gear.

Burton : Neat Molds

Neat little molds. They have a notch to fit your hook into. They form a neat ball of dough bait and keeps some of that mess off of your hands.

jim : Nice addition

Meets expectations keeps fingers clean

Mattandsandy : Never would have thought this would have been so helpful

Keeps the bait in a nice little ball. Just don't forget to dip the mold in water first.

Amazon Customer : Works as advertised

These make perfect balls with the trout dough as long as you put the hook in afterward forming them up. I find that the balls fall apart too easily if you try to mould the bait and hook in one go. Not a big deal though.

Hawk78 : Not very useful

These are more of a gimmick than an actual useful tool. Makes a bigger mess then if I just use my fingers to scoop it out. Designed to work with treble hooks and not snell hooks.

Stan C Robins : Bait Mold

They worked better than expected, I would order them again if needed. Very useful easy to use and no powerbait on your hands.

LEM : Works great - just what I needed.

Works as expected. Compact and easy to store in my fishing gear.

N. And L. Rivera : Size matters

Glad it was cheap! The small one fit in the power bait jar but was too small for the sz 14 hook. The bigger one wouldn't fit into the power bait jar, so it was pointless. I won't use them again.

Kindle Customer : Works great

Makes perfect balls and don't have to worry about the smell on your hands
