mine are made from hardwood or balsa depending on what im targeting.
bibs are POLYcarbonate and lazer cut usually from excess stock from manufacturers. Paints are 2 pack car paint strong as guts and a ship load of differant colors out there. I use spinnerbait wires stainless steel in varying grades, again depends on the toothy critter on target. to put lures together 5 minute epoxy is the bee's knees. all my raw glued lures are dipped in modellers dope to seal them up tight before painting doing this will stop rot and absorbtion if the paint is chewed off or cracked ,dope will absorb into the wood sealing it tight. AS far a pictures of designs go practise makes perfect getting the bib correct and weights correct is a pain in the butt but when you get it right slight mods will make all the differnance in actions and depth. -------------------- YOU MUST SHOW RESPECT TO GET IT IN RETURN, NEVER PRESUME YOU DESERVE IT.....

most model shops ,,remote control cars,model aeroplanes , remote aeroplanes sell the stuff its awesome and dries in around 10 minutes ready to sand or pain straight over no 24 hour waits...
I cut the lure in 2 and run a whole piece of wire through from bib to tail stops nasty buggas chewing me off or pulling my pins... This post has been edited by Mully: Feb 16 2008, 09:28 PM -------------------- YOU MUST SHOW RESPECT TO GET IT IN RETURN, NEVER PRESUME YOU DESERVE IT.....

There is nothing more satisfying than a fish caught on YOUR lure, sometimes I spend more on a home made than a commercial manufactured lure lol when you think about it a bit of time and money goes into making your own lure...
What bib material do you use jason ? -------------------- YOU MUST SHOW RESPECT TO GET IT IN RETURN, NEVER PRESUME YOU DESERVE IT.....

I can just picture jason sitting on the porch with a knife doing the Jed Clampet
Diddling away @ a tree to make a lure ![]() ![]() Yep Yep lexan is unbreakable & you can even put it in a press to bend it up pretty good stuff easy to work with. stainless would make ideal bibs but it can be a bugger to work with. -------------------- ![]() Save The Fish, Eat a Pussy |
