Hi everyone. I began to see that buying lures on the dream of catching fish was only part of what was to become an obsession and hobby as important as fishing. I started out modifying soft plastic lures using a candle and blade. Painting hard baits was okay, but buying and making molds to make soft plastics was more challenging and rewarding. Making skirted jigs, in-line spinners and spinnerbaits has also filled a niche.
Strange that few anglers on any fishing forum care much about lure design, creation and modification. I do something with lures on a daily basis and hope to share ideas with everyone. Frank |

Thanks everyone. I've begun to post creations in soft plastics, spoon and wire baits. Help yourself to the ideas. Pictures of fish caught on many of them will be included. A picture of an 18lb carp was added to a post that demonstrated a method of making a universal species, soft plastic lure without the need for a mold.
Lure-making and new design are as important to me as fishing and provide the same satisfaction as catching fish, if not more. |
