I was flipping through the April issue of Field and Stream the other
day and noticed an article about a guy that had created a lure from a beer bottle cap. So, this morning I figured I'd give it a try and create my own. I had a few Corona Light bottle caps lying around so I came up with this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/56301544@N00/10529829/ I took it out to the pond and, believe it or not, on my 3rd cast, I was reeling in a small bass (probably about 1 lb, maybe a tad more). Here's how I made mine. I took the cap and drilled a hole on each end - one for the swivel hook and one for the treble hook. I bent the cap and poured 3 BBs into it and used a clamp to squeeze it tight so it wouldn't open back up. Then just clipped the swivel hook and treble hooks on and I was done. I used a light spinning rod and reel to cast. |
