One of the best ways of catching a fish is by using an artificial lure. Some lures on the market today claim to be so good at catching the big one, it is illegal to use in some fishing tournaments. The type of lure that is growing in popularity is the wooden freshwater fishing lure.

These fishing lures can be found in just about any department store and can be found on web sites dedicated to fishing and sporting equipment. The prices vary, depending on the brand and size of the lure. There is a less expensive alternative to purchasing a store bought lure. With just a few supplies, a wooden fishing lure can be made in a matter of minutes. The following is one of the easiest ways to create a wooden lure.

1. Cut an aluminum can and flatten it into a thin sheet of material. Be careful when cutting and shaping sheet metal, it can quickly turn into bodily injury.

2. With metal shears, cut the sheet into a spoon shaped piece. Cut several in various sizes if different sizes of lures are going to be made. They can be anywhere from one to four inches, narrowing to one end. The outcome should look like a small prey fish.

3. The next step is to cut a slit in the head of a clothes pin, about a half inch deep. Add some strong adhesive into the cut and insert the aluminum fish into the slit.

4. A hole can be drilled on the bottom side of the lure for placement of the hook. Any hook can be used. Use the same glue to hold them in place.

5. The legs of the clothespin should be cut off flush with the head of the pin. When that is accomplished, a hole can be drilled in the front of the head so that straight pins with beads can be added for the look of eyes.

6. Next step is to paint the lure. Bright colors such as orange and red seem to attract more fish that the duller colors.

Tackle is one of the most important tools for fishing. If the fisherman can learn how to make wooden freshwater fishing lures, it can be added to the tackle box, giving another option to catch the fish of the day.
