I make my own spinnerbaits from the already pre molded and pre painted forms from cabelas. Then i get some blades a skirts and mix and match colors. Im not really sure if they save that much money making them yourself but i know that the hastle is alot more than just buying some. what do you guys think about hts

There are cheaper places to get  components and have a wider selection than that place. Try Janns Netcraft or Stamina.

I am hopefully going to do this soon. I'm going to buy from Barlowstackle.com. A great store from texas That sell frames in 3 or 10+ packs. I bought a 50 skirt kit from Janns. I think it will be worth the hassle, it will be fun making my own baits while the lakes are frozen. I like to keep my tackle kind of uniform so now all my spinnerbaits will be simple/uniform looking. I can't wait till i catch fish on a bait i made myself.

Do you make your own skirts also? I have a little kit I take to big tournaments in case the boater has a color thats working and I don't have it I can make a couple the night before.

I think the only thing that matters is your attitude about it. You may not save money, but if you enjoy the hobby and get a big charge out of catching something on a lure of your own making, then go for it. Otherwise, you might as well just buy what you need off the shelf.

I used to make my own spinner baits. It is fun forawhile but the amount of stuff you need to keep up is a pain.

White, silver, blue, black,  chartruce, red, orange, brown, and mirage skirt colors, tinsel

blades in all shapes sizes and colors its actually a huge investment for me since I match spinner baits to the conditions im faceing.

I firmly believe skirt color on a spinner bait is as important as blades
