Default Lure making time

ill wait till Saturday to do a slop fest ice fishing so I continued making some lures I know I'll need soon. Kietech swim baits are great but they basically are destroyed from one fish so I just make my own, just as flexible and salty exact same design but more durable and custom colored to whatever I want. Also some more trolling flies. Gotta make some more colors of the swimbaits and some twister tail grubs and I'll be ready for some spring domination! Got a mess of bucktails made too, but mostly use those for fluke.

what are some favorite spring lure colors? i was going to do some pearl whites and perch colors (maybe some green hue with orange and yellow flakes) for the swimbaits. can't wait for hopatcong to open up the ice! It's so sloppy now at this point i'm saying, come on heat! sorry ice maniacs! I will most likely go jigging one last time on the ice, but i might just wear my rain boots hahahaha.

Very cool!

Care to share what you used to make the molds and what you use for the actual rubber for the swimbaits?

Thanks guys. I may have had success making a free swinging hook version, but I guess I won't know till I hook a fluke with it haha.

Let's see it!

And those flies would make for great teasers for cod and fluke if tied on 4/0 & 5/0 hooks...

I have to paint it and dig through my stuff to find a hook for it, I might not have a perfect size but I'm sure I have something that will work. Never caught cod but I've def thought of using the flies as teasers for fluke haha.
