Lure Making

This handcrafted lure is a true blend of art and performance, made from linden wood, which provides an excellent balance between strength and natural buoyancy. The body features rich texturing with pronounced scales and a deep 3D effect, while metallic pink and silver tones create a strong visual contrast that produces an intense, lively flash in the water. The head is carefully shaped with realistic eyes and detailed relief, closely imitating a real baitfish, and the precisely distributed weight ensures a stable, natural swimming action during the retrieve, both in calm and moderately moving water. The lure weighs 100 g, approximately 0.22 lb, and measures 25 cm, or about 9.84 in, placing it in the category of large, heavy-duty lures designed for targeting powerful predatory fish. The finish is protected with three layers of epoxy, providing exceptional durability, impact resistance, and a long-lasting high-gloss surface that further enhances light reflection underwater. This lure is ideal for anglers who appreciate handmade craftsmanship, unique design, and reliable performance in real fishing conditions.

8. Blood Knot

This knot is designed to join two fishing lines of similar diameter, making it ideal for creating leaders or extending line length. It creates a slim and balanced connection that maintains good line strength. The knot is tied by overlapping the two lines, wrapping each tag end around the opposite line several times, and then pulling both ends tight. It is commonly used in fly fishing and light tackle setups.

Single hook or treble hooks – what’s your choice and why? 🎣
Single hooks mean fewer snags, easier release, and cleaner fishing, especially around structure. Treble hooks offer more hook-up points but also more tangles and missed chances. There’s no right or wrong answer – it all depends on conditions, target species, and personal style.
So tell me: would you rather have fewer hook-ups or more hooks working for you?

7. Albright Knot

This knot is used to connect two lines of different diameters, such as braided line to monofilament or fluorocarbon. It is relatively easy to tie and provides a strong and reliable connection. The knot is formed by creating a loop in the thicker line, wrapping the thinner line around the loop several times, and then passing it back through before tightening. It is commonly used for leader connections in both freshwater and saltwater fishing.

6. FG Knot

This knot is a strong and slim connection knot used to join braided line to fluorocarbon or monofilament leader. Its low profile allows it to pass smoothly through rod guides, making it ideal for long casts. The knot is formed by tightly wrapping the braided line around the leader in a series of alternating coils, then locking it in place with half hitches. It is widely used in spinning and saltwater fishing where strength and casting performance are critical.
