Posts: 786 Location: Minnesota | You can have some fun making the foil bases too. Here are a few Grunts I did. One used netting, another used a wicker basket as the backing form and the last I just pinched the foil over and over again. I also use a lot of my kids toys. Some of those have very neat textures to them that transfer onto the foil. James Edited by Grunt Lures 4/20/2007 3:16 PM Attachments ----------------  Picture1.jpg (89KB - 172 downloads) | ||

Posts: 786 Location: Minnesota | Thanks! I would love to do some of the work others do here but, lures in general just don't command the price it would take for that kind of work. I imagine a Tigger bait in a Grunt with the foil and paint would take me at least 2-3 hours of hands on work. I amy still ahve to try a few for my own collection though  | ||
