Finished my lure....

Just thought I'd share a project Ive been working on. Its not finished, but around 99%. Need to work out a few kinks.

Basswood, stainless steel, micro fiber cloth and epoxy.

Here is a vid of yesterday's tests.

Yes, it will get a finish. Todays test was just to find if the action was right. That was a success. I do need to adjust the front joint as it locks itself on a bad cast. Nothing major, just a date with a sander.

Here is a previous prototype with a finish.




As soon as i find some 16 gauge stainless rods, i plan to make a mackerel version for yt

Thanks guys.

Nicely done!
What a great action that thing has.
That's really cool Bing. I'm a lure maker too, and it's a great feeling to bring a personal design to fruition.
Wait till you hook a fish on it. You'll swell with pride.
Keep it up man. Great work.
