LaPala Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Some very interesting concepts there. I would forget about the weights and throw them with a fly rod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daffy_duck Posted March 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 they work only on botom,in Europe:)like jig bites. they are a "revolution method" 5 years ago the russian are gods of eazy tacklemaking,and "working"lures,trust me:),but you can make a second revolution, with fly rod.

LedHed Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Daffy Duck Are the lead heads, posted in the last pictures, store bought or home made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelly Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I second the lead heads in the last pic. They look like a good trolling head with a flat diving surface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daffy_duck Posted March 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 all this stuff is handmade,they make the molds himself,if you looking for some ideas i try to find. the name of the heads is "CHEBURASKA",they have a cartoon movie with small ?bear? or ?mouse? with big ears,and the form of the lead head is copy the head of this animal:) euro humor,nothing you can do. the animal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psv Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Oh well, back in 90 it was the hottest baits in Russia. Walleye's killer, as well as pike. Work in USA and Canada as well (tested). Lead head - below is the link from Do-It: Do-it Molds: Ear Ball Lure The best material to make - it's the foam from computers and hardwares packages (white and grey).

Nova, You work with what you have I guess. I couldn't buy any brand lures. Nobody sell them at that time in my city. No Internet orders, no catalogs. We were lucky enough to have a friend in Moscow. He bought twisters and others plastics for us (made in China, of course). Now I send the lures and parts to my friend. The fishing stuff is really expensive there. We did spinners, jigs heads and this " porolon" fish. Even clevices I did by hand. What a pain!!! Below is the samples . The spinner is 14 years old and made in Russia by my fishing partner in 1994. Keep it as a memory of those great time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatfingers Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Thank you. I enjoyed reading about this method. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 I know what it's like to be on a budget and I understand what you are saying. No disrespect was intended. When I started tying flies at 16 I had to use whatever I could get my hands on. It forces you to be really inventive. Maybe that's why; now 42 years later; I look at everything as potentially a shape or part for a new bait. I never liked to go shopping. I would know what I wanted and go get it and get out. Now I wander through stores looking at shapes; patterns and even colors. You never know when an idea will hit you. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 I´ve seen similar lures with a tail glued onto the sponge thats cut from a dishwashing glove cut like a grubtail swims nice on a very slow retrive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookUp Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Take that sponge and soak it in fish scent Anise Garlic Crawfish extract Should be a killer fish attracter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psv Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 HookUp, We tried with panfish blood. I didn't find too much difference. The key is presentation. Zigzag works the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
