  • Get way to injoy fishing throughout the whole year

    I bought this book to bring my favorite hobbies together. The information in the book is great with lots of pictures. All of the wood-working can be done with very basic handtools. I have already made several lures using the infomation from the book, and with a few changes to make them saltwater friendly, I have caught some big Redfish in the marshes of Louisana.

  • Great wooden fishing lure reference

    I got this book on loan from the local library, along with a couple of others. I read each and every page and was guided through all the processes it takes to take a raw piece of wood and shape it into a beautiful fishing lure. I didn't want to return the book so I ended up purchasing it off eBay. This is by far one of my favorite books and it'll be a reference for many years to come.

  • A highly illustrated book for learning to Making Great Lures simple and fun

    I bought this book, in order to learn more about making fishing lures, and to do this with my grand kids. The book arrived it was in perfect shape, very simple and clear photos, and was very pleased with all aspects of the book. It help me to understand weights and lures and what each lure does. Now we are ready to put our lures to the test. They were fun to make and I am sure they will be fun to fish with.

  • Awesome

    Great illustrated book on making and painting any type of fishing lures. Fantastic!
