Has any one out their ever made fishing lures from the premo!
I know people that have---and Plano, the fishing tackle box people have the kind of plastic boxes that DO NOT intereact with our raw clays, makes for good storage... the people I know that were doing this had flyfishing husbands, who tie their own lures, and they had some very good results with Sculpey SuperFlex which is basically sculpey with more of the Elasticlay added, the plasticiser. The clay stays very rubbery/bendy after baking, makes things look livingbait-ier on the hook... Sarajane Sarajane's Polymer Clay Gallery http://www.polyclay.com |

Here's some info I have on making lures (from the Sculpting-gen. page at my website): `````````````````````````````````````````````````` ```````````````````````` `````````` fishing lures ....Don Lokke makes crankbaits, topwater lures, spoons, flies, "jigs"(wire armatures?), etc. http://www.polymerlures.com .........I have marketed my CD's (on making these..plus how to make and use molds, mix colors, etc.) on eBay for over 2 years ..$20 each (http://www.polymerlures.com/catalog.htm) ........my CD's are more detailed than the advertising and recommend the proper baking times considering the thicknesses of each design. 15 minutes is plenty for some of the small jigs or flies... crankbaits take more time and may take multiple sessions. . Don Lokke ....Sculpey III may not be suitable for thin or projecting parts of lures though because of it's brittleness after baking. ....see sub-categories below for lots of bugs to make with clay! `````````````````````````````````````````````````` ```````````````````````` `````````````````` HTH, Diane B. http://www.glassattic.com ...... polymer clay "encyclopedia" ....if sending me e-mail, DO NOT USE THIS AOL address (or I may never see it!)
