Lure Foundry

Bait creating is fun.  From pouring soft plastics to tying your own walleye spinners or spin-n-glows to painting your own crankbaits, you'll be amazed at how simple a lot of this hobby is.  I'll be developing and showcasing blog posts that will help you understand the process, what you will need to get started  and how you need to do it.  This page will be updated as often as possible.
