Posts: 680 Location: Muskoka Ontario,Canada | Hey gang. I'd like to share a few pics from my past. You might get a kick out of seeing the very first glide bait I ever made. It was done in the fall of 2004 and looks really, really bad! lol Enjoy!

Posts: 137 | Not to shabby for your first. Here is a pic of my first muskie lure that I made in the late nineties sometime while making a bunch of bass poppers. I made it before I had ever even been muskie fishing. Tried to pattern it after a believer, or so I thought. I hadn't ever seen any muskie lures in person, so I tried to make it like the believer that I saw in an in fisherman magazing. Of course, I had no idea that believers were as thick in the head, so mine came out a little funny. The first time I tried it out on my first muskie fishing trip just a few years ago, I found that it doesn't work like a crankbait should, but swims too the side and eventually blows out. So I didn't use it again, just kept it around as my good luck "voodoo" muskie lure for a while and eventually it ended up in one of my unused tackle boxes. Funny thing was, that I pulled it out at the end of December and took it out on the water to see if it would do anything besides swim and what do ya know. Now that I have been muskie fishing a while, I recognize the qualities of a good jerkbait that has a lot of side to side action and good back ups when paused. I think I may throw it a little more. Back to the roots, I guess. Attachments ---------------- muskiebones1.jpg (24KB - 202 downloads) | ||
