vb4me 1 Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 Obviously not a new idea but whatever works.http://www.fishyfishing.com/News/article/sid=6.htmlMakes you wonder what really makes a lure so appetising to fish. Is it the sparkle that metals give off if so then why do sp's work so well? Is it the colours? What about the scents that are applied or inbuilt to some lures?? The vibrations created as the lure "swims" through the water? Blades really seem to attract fish from what I have experienced. Maybe looking like a natural bait? Or is it that a fish will have a shot at anything that is in its path that looks meal sized???? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

vb4me 1 Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 Check out the links AFF. On sale online One of them wanted 7 bucks plus postage. Cheap lure but as a throwaway item coupla bucks for some hooks and split rings and 2 mins of your time its definitely a diy job for sure Quote Link to post Share on other sites
