Just curious.

built 60 the first year, 600 the second year. 60 was fun, 600 was NOT.

2006 was my first year building Grunts for money. I built 200 and sold about 150 so far. If I get to 1000/year I think I will be happy. Anymore and I woudl not be able to keep up without taking a LOT of time away from my family. I have a full time job as a chemist so lures takes some extra free time. Fun though. If I had to I could make 80-100/week full time (50hrs or so/week).

On a yearly basis I make maybe 40 lures. I am still in the "making lures for fun" stage. Much more than that and it will start to be a chore.

100 is my maximum....never more than 100. I am a fisherman first, lure making is a winter project for me.

Once I sold a few there was more demand than there was energy to build. I limit myself to building only in the off season now maybe 150 baits. That way it is still fun and I have time to fish.
