I want my boyfriend some fishing bait homemade, any advice on where to find instructions on how to make my own. Perhaps those with feathers or something. I’m highly skilled in construction so feel free to post links but the links are free instructions. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! 
The 1st link is an advertisement for a book on “Fishing Secrets” but, it’ll give ya’ info., on makin’ your own lures (use the index column on the left hand side of the page for the different types of lures). It’s pretty informative and yesssss it’s a’ freebie;)… Other link is for the necessary things needed for fabricatin’ them ie., body’s, hooks, spinner blades, etc., etc.;)… < * ( {{ > < http://www.fishinghomemadelure.com/index.php
