This is a pair of lures that I built for Gerry Carrol who makes Gerry's Girls bucktails. I really like his baits because they are built super-durable and the blades spin the instant they hit the water. These lures are going to be gifts for friends of his so I can't mention any names until the guys have the l...

Here's a small batch I finished up last week. I was throwing these guys a little bit over the weekend so they have a scratch or two on them. Had some good follows but no takers. Can't wait to get some teeth marks on these guys. Nothing fancy, just some of my favorite colors in simple patterns that work. jere...

I finally got around to doing another batch of lures- it's been awhile! This batch was done on some Salmo blanks and they're headed up north to Canada. I used regular python on one, the new silver metallic python on another, and the two little guys have cobra (brown) and sea snake (white) on them. They we...

Here's my latest two. Custom order for a fisherwoman in MN. They came out pretty nice. There's a bit of glitter in the first coat of epoxy that shows through the purple scales, it's a bit hard to see in the pictures though. These guys are 6" and weigh around 1.75oz. They will dive in the mid to upper te...

Here's a 6" rainbow trout in a deep diver (should hit around 15') that I just finished up for a guy in CA. It's a gift for his friend who's going to use it for largemouth and striper. It will take just about any speed and it should hold up to anything a striper can throw at it. I used all heavy duty stain...

Here's a few baits I finished up early this week- all small stuff. I did a bunch of different style lips on these just to see what they would do. I just did two patterns: what I call Black Goldfish and the other is a Fire Tiger/Perch. The Black Goldfish has gold glitter and gold stripes but they are hard to se...

They are absolutely fantastic for lure making.Even someone like me can produce a reasonably nice lure. I am a 100 ton licenced Master / Captain, and former commercial tuna fisherman (hook and handline, and liftpole).These lures , which I call "BTS" (Big Tuna Squids) have caught me some f...

Jeremy Wagner · Jeremy Wagner

Finished up two more baits a few days ago and they are done curing! The first one is a shallow diving cobra that I did for a fellow from VA. (not sure if he wants his name mentioned or not). The yellow python I did for Gerry Carroll, the maker of Gerry's Girls. The yellow python is also a shallow diver. The pyt...

I have these two just about done, they need one more coat of Diamond II. They are my 8" cedar bodied crankbaits. The first one is cobra skin and the second is a python. The fish really seem to like these lures and I enjoy building them. A good combination! jeremy

Crazy Capt. G here. There is nothing more satisfying than catching a fish on a lure that your make by yourself. Add a custom rod that your made to the mix, and the experience becomes stupid good. I have been making lures since I was ten, and 35 years later, while not very good at it, I can still fool a fish...

With archery season coming, I've been working like mad to get everything done and out of the way. I'm so excited to hunt, I've been dreaming about it!!! I was debating on posting these pictures because some of the lures are for Silvia and MaryLou. I hate to spoil surprises so I'll just have to ask for fo...

Jeremy Wagner · Jeremy Wagner

I'm currently working on some of my snake skin lures for MaryLou and Silvia. I as able to do some tinkering in the meantime. Most of these are new styles for me and I was more concerned with their action than the paintjobs. The good news is that they all run great and are going in my box! The bad news is th...

I am looking for a Saltwater field tester for a minnow bait that I have been working on for about a year or so now. I have developed it for Redfish. It is approximately 5 1/4" long, has a continuous .045 stainless wire running thru it with 2 hook drops, one midway one rear. It also has a circuit brd lip....

MaryLouVandeRiet · MaryLouVandeRiet

I am about as tight as a rusty hinge when it comes to spending money....and I dislike to throw anything out, that I may have a use for later down the road !!.... Well, I was hanging on to this BBQ grate and thought it would make a good jig holder while the jigs were drying..or just to hold them until I got them...

Jeremy Wagner · Jeremy Wagner

Here's some of the muskies lures that I've done this year. They are wrapped in snake skin! They are all made from maple, are 8" and weight around 3 oz. I just recently started using taxidermy snake eyes on them and it has made a huge difference! I'll post some pictures of one of them tomorrow. ...

My girlfriend asked me to make some jigs for her Father as a Father's Day Gift...so I made these jigs from black bear hair and moose.and bucktail......and came up with the name of Papa Bear, Momma Bear and Baby Bear !!... MaryLou~~

Silvia Davis · Silvia Davis

No one will know exactly how fantastic this lure looks until they hold it in their hands. Were you spot on about the taxidermy snake eyes. And leaving the hooks on was the right thing to do, folks will just have to handle with care. You were also right about that seamcould it have been more perfect!!! THA...

Here is my latest crappie jig I tied for another crappie jig swap.....I call it The Orange Slice...and guaranteed to catch a angler !!!... ML~~

Jeremy Wagner · Jeremy Wagner

Finally got a chance to take some pictures of Silvia's lure. It's the same as the rest: 8", about 3oz, carved from a maple blank. It has taxidermy alligator eyes, .092" stainless eye screw, and 5 coats of D2. The D2 is so clear that it hardly shows in some of the pictures that I took!

MaryLouVandeRiet · MaryLouVandeRiet

A friend sent me these photos of a simple and inexpensive way to store the jigs you have made...or use when fishing.... It consists of a old VHS box....and some Noodle Foam....it's pretty simple and cheap !!!...I mean frugal !!!! ML~~

MaryLouVandeRiet · MaryLouVandeRiet

At it again....I have all this scrap fur and it is hard not to tie some jigs...here is what I ended up with some moose and badger.... The moose is like tying wire..and the badger is like working with silk !!.... MaryLou~~

MaryLouVandeRiet · MaryLouVandeRiet

That's what I call this jig I made with more moose hair..!!!........Showed this jig to a LMB angler and he went bananas over it...going to put a trailer on it to make it weedless... Think I will head to Lake Granbury and try it out !!!... MaryLou~~

MaryLouVandeRiet · MaryLouVandeRiet

OK Guys.... I'm at it again...this time it is a crappie jig tied with moose hair...it is like tying/working with wire !!!!.. This one is not a 100 % finished...this was fun !!.. ML~~
