smalljaw Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 That is great to hear of your success Norman, and thank you for letting us know that are suggestions and tips really helped you, far too often people get an answer to a question and are never heard from again. Now you can visit and ask questions all you want but the most important thing is that you can now help someone else that comes here and is just starting out like yourself and give those people the advise that you were given, that is how the site works. Good luck in your lure creations and continue to check back, you may learn something new or you may be able to help another lure creator, but don't be a stranger!!

cadman Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 Norman, I'm going to second what smalljaw said. It's nice to hear from guys that have learned something we all have contributed to. I never look for praise as most of the guys don't either. We do this to help those wanting to learn. At some point in our tacklemaking years we all learned from someone and others. I just like to pass along what I know. No secrets to any of this. It's all about trying something, keeping at it and a lot of trial and error and mostly hours of practice. Eventually if you are persistant everything will come full circle. Also glad you caught some fish with your new creations. We'll all be hear to help each other out, ask question and hopefully get good answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldfart9999 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 I'm one of those that learned, and am still learning, from the guys here. I belong to 2 sites, this one and a bass fishing site and have learned and enjoyed both. Rodney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loodkop Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 I want to add my thanks to the previous posts. I have learned more in a couple of months reading than in 10+ years of making lures on my own. I don't post a lot but have used the search function extensively. I'm in totally different time zone so I log in every morning to see what happened during the night and the give a last check before going to bed. I'm addicted to both luremaking and TU.

CraigS Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Poured my first jigheads yesterday. I am very happy with the results, and I am sure my success is from all the informational posts I have read on this site. Thanks, and as I get more experience, I hope I can contribute.
