:rain: You can make a lure from a desert spoon or tea spoon and remove handle, drill two holes, one
for treble hook, one hole for split ring, then paint one side dark green and yellow, works on redfin
or trout and maybe salmon

Re: Making lures
based on my experience, my advice is BUY instead of making them, not unless there is no other choice or you want a good hobby.crazycod wrote: Does anyone have any advice on making lures
The cost and the pain of getting the press going is too much. I started making surf poppers a few years ago because the $2 poppers were too expensive. I ended up buying $20 materials, plus tools, plus paint thinner to clean my hands. Never again!
OF ALL THE THINGS I LOST, I MISS MY MIND THE MOST.
