I haven't given up yet, ![[Image: bobwink.gif]](http://www.bigfishtackle.com/images/gforum/bobwink.gif)
although you could probably tell me that I'll never manage to make anything good with the components I have, with all your experience. I made one just today, I'll probably go try it out tomorrow Lord willing. Yes, I am casting, but maybe the weight I added isn't enough to make a problem. I should have bought French blades, I have a spinner that was given me, that has a French blade, and it spins so easily.
I can imagine it would be fun to catch a fish with a bait one makes, I hope to experience it some day. :-)
I have access to welding materials, but I don't know if there is the kind that you mean.
In my town there is a nice sports store that has a fishing section, and they sell tackle. Apparently somebody makes at least some of the in-line spinners that they sell there. I had thought of making lures and selling them to them, but with the start I got at tackle craft..... and I don't know if they would buy them anyway. I was there today, and was there the other day and bought Mustad Ultra Line 19-point-whatever lb test, for my spinning reel, also bought there. (I got the reel as a birthday gift![[Image: happy.gif]](http://www.bigfishtackle.com/images/gforum/happy.gif)
) And yes, "Provided you can make something that will catch fish." Exactly what remains to be seen. [laugh]
