What do you think about built it yourself lure kits?

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Would you make your own lures if there was a quality kit on the market?

yes, I have some great designs in mind.

Maybe, I am yet to see a good kit that has what I want.

I just bought a Spinner bait kit from LureMaking.com. I'll be able to make 5 spinners for 10 bucks. I also bought some feathers from the $ store and paint from Micheals. I'll have five new lures to test for just under 3 bucks each.

I also had some Mink fur I took and wrapped it around a Zara Spook. It was sewn on (tks Mom) and has a tail. It looks just like a Muskrat and I'll be flicking that about the salad come this Sunday on the Ottawa.

I think it would be a blast to catch a fish on something I had an effort on producing.

We are considering and testing new products, flippin' jigs is one of them. We have several products we want to introduce to the market, all in time. I've been making my own flippin' jigs for years now. I have made them custom for several tournament anglers. Give me a shout sometime and we'll chat. 705 252 6920.
