Luremaking: The Art and Science of Spinnerbaits, Buzzbaits, Jigs, and Other Leadheads

Product Description

Many books describe in detail the art of tying flies, yet the vast majority of America's licenced anglers - more than 20 million of them - fish for bass and other fish with spinnerbaits, buzzbaits, jigs, and other leadheads. This book provides a complete course in the art and science of making the most popular fishing lures. Livingston states unequivocally that the safety-pin spinnerbait is the most versatile fish catcher ever devised. A lure for all seasons, it can be worked successfully on top, bottom, or anywhere in between, and will take almost every fresh- or saltwater species. And because pinnerbaits, leadhead jigs, buzzbaits lend themselves to changes in design and materials, they give the tackle tinkerer millions of combinations to try.

    My first spinnerbait I got as a kid for my birthday. I knew that from that moment on I was going to catch a lot more fish ... I loved that spinnerbait. Of course, I lost it soon thereafter. Back in the store where it came from (after I had finally persuaded my father to buy me another), I asked for an identical lure, but they were all sold out, and never again did I see this particular kind of spinnerbait.... bummer! So when I discovered, years later, as a teenager that one could make one's own lures, I was exillerated and got to it right away. I located the right parts, got them and made myself a new spinnerbait just like the one I once lost. However, it didn't catch as much as it did before, so I started to work on it. Replaced the blade with others, added beads of different color, and pretty soon I had a whole range of spinnerbaits. As I was then (and still am), I wanted to read all there was on the topic, but there was little. A few chapters in books, an article or so... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars Want new, better designs, increased confidence & success?, December 30, 1998
    By A Customer
    This review is from: Luremaking: The Art and Science of Spinnerbaits, Buzzbaits, Jigs, and Other Leadheads (Paperback)
    Spinnerbaits, buzzbaits and jigs all belong to the same family. The bass jig itself is a basic tool that works "on the drop" and then on the bottom. The spinnerbait is a specialized form of the bass jig that works well in mid-water applications from slow-rolling just above bottom to bulging or waking just below the surface - and every depth in between. The buzzbait is a specialized form of bass jig that works best as a topwater surface commotion lure. With just these three lures, an angler - you - can face and be successful in any bass angling situation. Long term, it is in the best interest of your bass fishing success to study this book. Even if you do not intend to make them yourself, you will benefit from studying all the many factors and variations in the basic anatomy of these fish-catching creations.

    And if you do intend to make them yourself, as I do, then you've got everything you need to know in this book.
