| Hello all, I'm a college kid falling in love with 'skie huntin' and currently have two muskies to my name. I tie a lot of flies and recently have been making big bucktails, but I'd really like to start making some Jerkbaits. I was wondering if anyone could post materials and methods? Thanks... |

Location: Oregon | Spend some time using the "search" mode and you will figure out most of it. Methods from beginning to end is a long discussion and you will probably have better luck asking for "specifics". A good place to start is at this site, once there click on "jerkbaits": http://www.lurebuilding.nl/indexeng.html
have fun,

| I am woulld like to try to make a jerk bait. As I've been looking around for supplies I'm wondering where is a good place to get lead from? I see stamina sells it in a 1 lb. brick but I'm wondering if theres a place I can buy it in smaller pieces so I don't have to melt it down or anything like that. Any help would be great. |

| Lead bullets work great,
figure out how much weight you need , buy size needed, drill and epoxy in bait. also if you need to melt some, just use a stainless ladel, measuring spoon etc and a torch..Good luck....Doug
Also Decoy lead
fishing weights
buckshot
tire weights |

| Guest,
I can help you out. I've got lead in cylinders that work real well for gliders, jerk baits, etc. They come in 1/2 and 3/8 oz. I use them on my lures, they work great. Give me a call Monday and I'll hook ya up. (715) 892-1395.
