| Just as soon as I complete the last Tips and Tricks E-Book, I am going to start one on lure making. I'd like to have an idea of how many people make their lures now and how many would make them if they had decent instructions. Here are a few of mine. I probably pour 100 or more different jigs, sinkers and jigging spoons. DYI isn't hard and you can save some serious bucks by doing so. Making money at it is not easy, though. My wife and I had a fly tying business for a while but I won't do it again. The first pic is 2oz poppers turned with a lathe duplicator. Painted with Rustoleum paints straight from the spray can. 
This is a strange lure for trolling C-tail grubs. Ths one weighs 4 or 6 oz. 
3/4 oz single hook version of Little George. This is a Tripletail killer. 
A few jigging spoons. Mine go from 1-8oz 
The Pink lures top and bottom were made in a silicone mold popped off the chrome plated lure in the photo. 
This is not Rocket Science.
Life is too short to catch little fish.

Very cool! I would probably make some things of my own if I knew how. I would also like to try building a rod!

Tarver makes some nice cobe jigs. I've watched him make them several times. Too much work. I just buy em off him. But that's a cool setup you got there.
