| any dedicated lure men or makers here? was just wondering if there were any members who make their own lureson here for the bass ,pollack or mackerel? ive been making lures for years,i steer away from balsa as it get wrecked all to easy and so use hard woods,heres a few i made for the old bass recently: a surface popper 4 inches long.  a small plaice again 4 inch,the action is very good and 'kites' in the water ,it is a botom lure and is only the second flatfish lure ive seen ! i plan to use this at seaton this summer.  and this one which realy is a freshwater lure its a crayfish but i guess it could maskerade as a small lobster!  thanks for looking.     |

| Re: any dedicated lure men or makers here? thanks guys,i love making stuff,and i do sell occasionally,problem is that i spend all that time making it and want to keep them all! i will be making some for sale very soon,i started yesterday making some freshwater brown trout lures, the launce is a fave of mine and got flung out on chesil a couple of times last night,sadly no bass as the guy in the next swim managed a pair of 7lbers!  |
