Looking good mate , soon be able to try them out.

Tried a few homemade spinners yesterday with no luck, water was a bit dirty.Did manage a fish on a proper lure though  so not a total failure.Should be better conditions by the end of the week so will try again.

Amazing Mr Kanny

You have a real talent

 Right   no laughing . I admit it; l'm a cheapskate.

After the previous  posts of amazing artisan lures l'm a bit embarrassed to post my recent efforts to make rubber lures on the cheap

Still, it'll possibly amuse or act as a warning to others who are too tight to do it properly. 

Having seen how many lures were lost or shredded on our last boat trip l determined to make a few and bought a litre of Plastisol and bit of Poundland glitter.

Proper moulds are expensive so l used plaster of paris to make my own . I already had the PoP  and  some old plasticine in a drawer which l modelled into crude  lure shapes to form the moulds around. 

I was going to mak my own lead heads as well but via  my daughter    Santa had recieved strong hints and an Ebay link to a supplier of such things.

It's  been a bit of a learning curve and these first attempts are a bit crude  to say the least ,but hopefully the fish won't  mind .

And l've still loads of Plastisol left .

You are too modest. Those are as good if not better than some of the shop bought lures I have.
