You'll need plastisol, glitter, scent, coloring, molds, salt, heat stabilizer and something to melt your plastic in. The most common things used for melting are a pyrex measuring cup and a microwave, a lee pot or a presto pot.
Look at lurecraft, bears baits, netcraft and you can get prices on all this stuff. I'm sure the guys that sent PM's have told you the same thing, but I thought I would add my 2cents!
The best website to learn about lure making is tackleunderground. Not to take anything away from BR, but that site is dedicated to tackle and rod making.
