Thanks uncle
I do wonder if you've lost one to a fish yet. We toil and fight and battle and bleed with these beasts and sometimes we win, sometimes we lose...sometimes when we win they lose their lives. I'd wonder what it feels like having them steal a bit of your soul when they go?
Beautiful work sir.
Yes mate have lost a few now, stings a bit :)Quote:

..(how’z that for a load of bullshit)
as long as the weight was below legal maximum,the size possible isnt so important for salmon if my understanding of them is correct,they arent so much trying to eat your lure as snapping at it to make it piss off...DAM made some 20ish years ago that wouldnt fit in normal coffee mug that were quite popular..no good in a fast current but great in slower water.
Spin fish …quick fish….small and really big….no real size limit really
Nah I haven't made a Salmon lure yet, to be honest I have no idea what a salmon lure is. I do still have a smaller one I need to make for Gimp and pretty sure he was going to try it in fresh and salt water. But I am on no deadline with these so when it will be made is TBA :D
If you are casting, small (80mm) stick baits work fine on salmon as long as they are heavy enough to cast.
I’ll take a few photos of the stuff we use and lll post them here if you like for an idea….. fishing lures for any fish is an art… u just never knowQuote:

Nice work Gibo,
How are you putting the cross hatching texture on?
I really like Paulownia timber as a medium to work with, I have built a few surfboards, canoes and kite boards from it in the past. Easy to work, not as soft as balsa and get a good finish. I recently looked at a life style block that had quite a few Paulownia trees on it, walking around all I could think about was all the timber I could have access to mill..... lures for the rest of our lives
