Haven't made a great deal of lures of late, but every now and then I squeeze out a one off just to try something new.
Had my first go at a couple surface lures, yet to give them a good trial but with the closed season on the cod starting this weekend, they may stay in the shed for a while longer yet.
 
Then just the other day my youngest daughter wanted to help clean the shed.
It lasted about 10 minutes before she asked if we could make a new lure.
Her little mind never ceases to amaze me, so after tracing around an old plastic lure to get a template, she then found a small plastic grub on the ground and asked if we could give it a tail.
 
A short time later we had a prototype to swim and I was blown away with the action.
We only made 4 to paint up and have yet to take them for their maiden voyage to tangle with a hungry yella or bass.
She appropriately named it the "Bum Grub"
Cheers,

Troy

Pepe is cool, always loved him in the cartoons.

Great design on the Bum Grub. A mate (RS Lures) had an extra hook hanger on the top of his minnows that he attacked a large saltwater fly to it. The fly rippled like a fish's fin and was awesome to watch. Sadly he didn't continue with it.
