Make you own lures?

[mepps]

Hey guys, I know a lot of enjoy making our own lures so I'd share some of my new designs and see if anyone is interested in trading for their own designs.

 

I've been making my own spinnerbaits for a few years now and they've been getting better every year. Each of these lures is 7-8 inches long with #7 french blades

 

 

Post your home made lures too!

Those look killer Clive. Very well constructed.

 

I never dabbled much in lures but as I recently noted in this thread,

I've gotten back into fly tying.

Nicely done! I've only made a few flies myself, but I did make a big 7 inch muskie fly (cant find the pics right now)

 

Your flies turned out much better then mine!

Wow! Exceptional examples of some nice work guys!

[bigugli]

Nice looking stuff guys. Don't know much about fly tying but those look quite lifelike. The inline spinners are sharp.

Me, I tie bucktail harnesses and bucktail jigs

[Leecher]

Awesome works guys

May be I should switch to doing some of that in the future

I have to say, Hellgrammites really creep me out, and Chris, those jigs creep me out, nice job man, real nice. Think we'll have to do some business soon.

I mostly tie jigs: bucktail, hare, silicone and some combinations. Here are a few recent ones

 

A slow-fall smallmouth jig: bucktail and silicone

Amazing Chris, just amazing.

Now that I've finally seen them how about some black and white maribou muddlers tied on 1/8oz jig heads?

I might be able to do that Mike.

 

For all those other do it youselfers, some great looking lures there.

No doubt all are effective fish foolers.

I just finished tying my first batch of steelhead/salmon jigs. Go easy, as I am a noob.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Its already very addictive. I painted a few of the jigheads myself by layering nail polish and clear laquer. I look forward to experimenting in the rapids until I find some jig that they just cannot resist.

[Spiel]

Those look great Kinger, some nice colour combinations.

[Kinger]

Thanks I appreciate that!

[pikeie]
