One guy's first lures

October 20th 2011 12:14
Here's a look at one artist's first attempts at making lures.

Although this video seems to be more a record of his testing than a "how I did it," you can still get some ideas.

Personally, I'd like to know what kind of hardware he was using for his jointed lures. Any jointed lure, regardless of who makes it, has a weak spot when the pieces are joined. I'd like to know what this guy is using and compare them to to my efforts.
Rapala certainly isn't telling me anything!

Making a crankbait

August 10th 2007 00:30
crankbait
Work has begun on this crankbait. Notice the area for the diving bill has been sawed.

With the variety of crankbaits on the market today, one has to wonder about the practicality of making your own lures. However, nothing beats the satisfaction of landing a fish on a lure you made!

Adding weight to lures

June 6th 2007 00:07
A few people have asked me what to do if their lures flop over in the water and look like a dead fish. Here's what I do--

Sometimes your crankbaits flop over on their side and look less than awesome. This may be from the type of wood you use or maybe the hardware is on the light side. This is not a big problem to fix. Providing everything else is going well, you may have a lure that you like and making it float properly would make it perfect
