Hey Quint.

I got so much on the go right now its crazy. I have 30 or 40 roughed out and in various stages of completion.

My shop is a bit tough to keep at the right temp for curing epoxy and painting in the winter, so I will be finishing them in the spring in a few months.


I will be keeping some, but planning on having 20 or so ready to sell when people get back into the swing of musky early summer.


I also started a not for profit recently called "lures for kids". Whole premise is sending fishing lures to kids around christmas time. Already partnered with several tackle shops and a supplier.

So trying to get that of the ground too lol

Im also looking for a bit of an edge, and am combining trapping with lure making...I am going to start tying musky bucktails with Black bear and wolf fur...This has never been offered before I dont think. Locally harvested bear and wolf/coyote fur, just going to be playing with blade colors and trying to get the powder coat paint to stay on them a bit better.

Do you have any videos/resources on lure makining? Very interested in the materials used and the whole process.

"Lures for kids" is an awesome idea

Nice job, OP. Glad you're living it up, and doing what you can to make a positive impact in society.

We need more threads like this.

I went hard hard at stuff when I was young. Now that I'm a bit older you realize how truly short life is. Gotta keep pushing.

My goal is to fish one day per weekend all summer. I did pretty well this winter, smoked a ton of fish.

I wanna get the lures for kids thing off the ground this fall too.

I got it registered as a non profit! That's a start!

Nice fish buddy.

Are those fish pretty typical for what you catch? They look massive to me, but I'm accustomed to fishing on little streams out west where 2 lb is a good fish. This is what I'm used to catching:

I had to travel a couple hours to this spot, but they are decent fish. I don't normally travel much to fish.

Can't see pic...try again?

I don't know what the deal is with embedding. Every once in a while I get someone who cant see my pics, but I think they usually work. Must be doing something wrong, but haven't figured it out yet. Here it is as an attachment.

Could have been on my end.

Awesome color fish!

Is that a fly rod?

Yep, fly rod. Actually, put that one together from a parts kit. You buy the rod blank, the guides, wrapping thread, grip, etc and then assemble everything. I have an 11' nymph rod almost complete right now.

laying out the guides:


homemade jig for wrapping the guides:



You put the rod in the v-shaped part and then wrap the thread to hold the guides in place. Once everything is wrapped you seal it with epoxy. It's not hard, just takes a bit of time. I enjoy working with my hands and this kind of thing gives me an outlet.

It's a fun change-up, but if I was catching them like you are, out on the lakes, I'm not sure I would take a break from that to catch the guppies I've been connecting with. I've done a bit of lake fishing with a fly rod, but on really big water conventional seems to be far more versatile. Fly fishing seems best suited to rivers. Could be showing my limitations as a fisherman, I'll admit I'm not expert. Looking forward to your lure making video. I tie flies and I enjoy catching fish with my own creations, so I get that.

Got you off recharge.

ETA: Got to get my bench cleaned up. It always gets a little out of control when I have multiple projects rolling.

So I was on a massive river last Thurs, and a ten lb laker on ten lb test line in that crazy current...would take like 6 minutes to get it.

Fish in current are a different beast!

We were drifting the current with 3 way rigs bottom bouncing.

I never fished like that before but damn!

Big for freshwater anyway.

My biggest until this point was 48". In the fall that 52" could be like 8 lbs heavier when they start packing on weight for winter.

Theres bigger out there. A 62" was netted as part of the MNR netting and tagging program here. Thats world record territory if caught in the fall.

Nice! I have had squirrel, but don't quite understand the draw to hunting them.

I think your squirrels are probably way bigger and more delicious than our reds lol
