bluegrasslover Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 A story about a guy that makes lures from wine bottle corks and beer bottle caps was in the local paper this past week. Pretty ingenious use of stuff around the house to make a lure! BoOzE bAiT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diemai Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 @ bluegrasslover ....funny ,........ I have the idea for such a lure on my mind for a long time now , have gathered a few bottle corks from workmates(I've packed up on booze) , caps and also screw-on softdrink caps already , ..........but never put it to practice . Grew the idea , after I've met an angler at a pond , saying that he was unemployed and doesn't have too much money for lures or building material and components . I'm also thinking of trying to make it to dive a bit by cutting the deeper screw-on plastic caps at an angle to make up for a kinda cupped diving vane , the two shanks of the linetie and maybe an epoxied screw would hold it in place with the longer portion of the "lip" downward . I wonder , whether the guy would be getting a lot of orders for more than 5 bucks per lure , as this appears to be a typical low cost and small effort homemade . Anyway , thanks for posting , .........very interesting:yes: ! greetz , diemai:yay: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
