I started making my own lures. Get a hold of some RTV mold rubber. Its a 2 part molding rubber. For about $30 you can get trial sizes. Also get some 7 minute epoxy, 3M Micro balloons (tiny spheres of air filled glass to mix with the epoxy to make lure float), some large syringes and some mixing cups. Clean and remove hooks on your favorite lure size, apply mold release then make a small box to hold the rubber mix. Use wire to lock lure inside the box with the lip just barely under the rubber level. Pour in the mixed rubber and let cure. After curing you are ready to make hundreds of lures. It is somewhat time involved but pretty fun. Just youtube how to make your own lures or diy lures on youtube. You can paint them any way you want or even install battery operated led lights.
