Re: Making ur own lures
I've tied some hair and marabou jigs. I've thought about 3d printing some cranks. But it'd be more work than it's worth unless the only purpose was for me to make a video about it.

Re: Making ur own lures
Started tying my own Peanut Flys and tube flies for great lakes fishing this year. Finally got some production of them this past week

Re: Making ur own lures
I have materials & molds to make the old earie dearie style spinner jig things with the slipper nose (not the earie dearie nose). I tried a treble hook on the back and get a lot of hits but few hook-ups. I make them for using as 3/8 oz slip sinkers nowadays...
Bend & make spinners.
Tie flies - dries, nymphs, wets. Best flies I ever made are size 12 hares ear and some kind of size 12 hornberg variation with starling feathers. My dad always liked a wooley bugger about size 10 and black. Fav dry is bivisible with wings.
Mold and tie jigs when necessary.
Mold sinkers.
Been known to whittle a topwater or two, but real ugly. Thankfully the fish never cared.

I have been thinking of making a series of alewife crank baits, shad and Cisco too.
