That's awesome, always a blast to catch a fish on a self made bait

Anyone else have a problem throwing anything but their own lure too once you make one??? I can't bring myself to fish anything else.

I really like the action I'm getting out of my last few baits I have them down to where I can pretty much leave them alone and be happy but knowing me I will eventually want to change or make new designs but as of now it is about perfect for me.

Absolutely, that’s the weird addictiveness of being a bait builder.  Everything in my tackle box I’ve made, bucktails, jerkbaits, crankbaits, topwater, and for rubber I’ll buy tails and mount it on a head I made.

I have the same problem. Everything in my box I made, even the soft plastics.
