I make my own because I couldn't find what I wanted on the shelf. Chart blades are easty to find same with those stickers. I have both and they came from either Barlows, Stamina Inc. or Jann's Netcraft.

I have had several custom spinnerbait molds made and yes you are right a 1/4oz spinnerbait weighs more than 1/4oz. The weight is what the lead alone weighs without any other components. I have some dead pours from my 3/8oz hidden weight mold and thay weigh exactly 3/8oz. Now when I put all the components on it the bait is slightly over 1/2oz.

On that list Iwould hold off on the tungsten weights and evolution jigs? Until you are real good with either of these baits you will see no benefit from them other than high dollar bragging rights. Buy some cheap jigs in solid black and whatever soft plastic color you feel confident in with matching trailers. You are going to lose a lot of jigs in the learning process so it is better to have 6 $1 jigs than 1 $6 jig.

I have caught more fish on a DT-4 than Zoom. The Zoom cranks are made well but do not seem to work for me? The LC RC 1.5 is running circles around all other cranks right now where I fish.

Not sure if there is a better book out there for beginners? But it is worth the price and a good start. I have been making my own lures for awhile now and still re-read it every so often.
