lynyrdsky1 Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 I got all the materials but, what do I do with the material? Do i cut each strand? I am very clueless right now. Quote
Super User Jigfishn10 Posted February 14, 2011 Super User Posted February 14, 2011 What are you trying to make? I started as a fly fisherman and used to tie flies a lot, and that experience has gotten me to tie materials for bass fishing lures. You'll be amazed at what you can do. Glad to see you started tying. Quote

lynyrdsky1 Posted February 15, 2011 Author Posted February 15, 2011 Would PB and J and Purple Blue Crystal be good colors to start out with if I'm trying to make a PB and J style skirt? Quote
FIAB Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 Lynyrdsky1, If you are wanting to learn how to tie in general and great resource would be Bass Pro in Memphis. Like Jigfishn10 said learning to tie flies will really help. Bass Pro in Memphis offers a free fly tying class the first Monday of every month. They provide all the equipment and materials. If you want to get started without dumping a bunch of money into equipment this may be something that you could do. It has nothing really to do with making silicone skirts for spinnerbaits but can offer you some insight into lure making and give you some ideas. Just don't let them know that you do not use a fly rod........you know how those purist fly fisherman can be ;D ;D ;D Quote
