Learn To Make Your Own Resin Fishing Lures

Creating your own lures gives you full control over design and color. You can also modify the weight in your lures for better balance and movement in the water. Making your own lures will also save you money in the long run.

In this video, and original model is sculpted in clay. The clay model is placed in a mold box. Ease Release 200 is applied to the model and box. Mold Star™ 20T silicone is mixed and poured over the model. After the Mold Star™ 20T silicone cures, the mold is cut open and the model is removed.

To create the casting, Cast Magic™ pearlescent powder is brushed into the mold. The mold is closed, and Feather Lite™ low density lightweight urethane is poured into the mold. After the Feather Lite™ cures, the mold is opened and the cast lure is removed.

The lure can then be painted before use.

You are a Genius! 💪🏽🤓👍🏼
I’ve always wanted to make my own swim or jigging baits. Especially to color the baits according to what the fish key on for that particular body of water or time of year.
You could even add or embed a plastic swim spoon in the front to give the lure a swim action. Super nice 👍🏼
This is so cool 😎 Thanks guy for posting.

Possibly the hooks should be attached better to the lure. It seems evident that the hook will strip out if it catches a fish. At least if it is a big one.

greetings from Indonesia, senior, please allow me to listen and understand his work and knowledge

[kevinanderson]

This is great, thanks a lot! Is the lure neutrally buoyant or does it float or sink?

[yoopermann]

thank for an easier way to make lures!! i have tried balsa wood and that failed just like other things i have tried, , thank you for the tips and info

[socalsaltwateranglers]

A two part mold would've been my go-to route and also those eyelets won't hold a big fish when hooked. Great presentation though 👊🏻

[JaneThomas]

Thank you!! My use will be for mixed media outdoor decor. My question: does the resin yellow in the sun/water? Very nice tutorial.

[nourddinenour]

Thank you for the great video .
What's the poured material please ?

[sinistersaladsbreaks]

I'm like, why is he putting the pins in already. Because he's brilliant. Want a time saver.

[douglaslivingston]

where can i get components like eyeletts, glass eyes, bills, joint attatchments?

[benduimstra]

How would you add a bill to this design? Could you add it before the pour just like the eyelets?

[godnunez]

is feather lite on amazon? i cannot seem to find it. i need floating hard plastic. is there a suitable sub?

[Vasher-The-Destroyer]

So basically you just make an out line sand smooth it then?

[RealGenX]

Is this fuel resistant? Like for a carburetor float?

[kyleristau]

Do you have to use the SO strong blue? What is it's purpose? Is it needed to allow the lure to cure or is it for color only?

[oneloveyessah]

Urethane, polyurethane and polyester resins? What's the difference from them?

[martineaubrosoutdoors]
