Default My Homemade Lures!

Here are some of my homemade lures, haven't tried them yet. Still waiting for the paint to come in so I can paint the spoon and plain looking spinner. They each have 2 BB's in them so they rattle.

I am just concerned how strong those beer caps are.... I think bigger fish will have no problem ripping that hook of the cap easily. Plus hook size comparing to lure looks a bit to big, not sure if it will work that well.

I just found a box of trebles in my grandparents garage. I will have to get smaller one, I was already thinking of doing that.

One of the best lures I seen was made from a bottle openner, a buddy of mine bought a few at a dollar store, put a little twist in them with a swivel at one end and a treble at the other with a piece of orange plastic skipping rope on the treble. It was deadly.
