Having in one way reached the end of the construction part
of this set of videos I find myself at the beginning with a lure, a rod and a lake.
I have been taking bits of wood shaping, painting them and throwing them in the
water for over five years and I still get excited every time one of my fishing
lures springs to life at the end of a line, but when it stops dead in the water
and the rod arcs as something grabs hold that’s when it all kind of makes
sense.
I would not of been able to make these videos without the
help, inspiration or encouragement of other lure fanatics, those people who share to the ‘how to’ either as
bloggers, video makers, writers, professional lure makers or the people who take
time to answer question on forums so thanks and thanks to my family for dealing
with my lure obsession with compassion, understanding and only occasionally
singing or shouting in background while I was filming.
Special thanks to

I love the use of the syringes for measuring. I will have to do that the next time.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the nod. You keep putting your quality blog posts and videos, and I will keep watching them.
I just want to say thanks for all the work you did and sharing it...I am following the Phox Minnow videos now. I got the weights cut and the thru wire and carving done last night. Still working on the jig and lip. Thank you very much for the videos I hope to see more in the days to come. If it werent for the detail vids It wont be possible for a old fart like me.
