Making fishing lures may be easy for the seasoned do-it-yourself
angler. But the maintenance of these lures is just as important to
ensure a tip-top condition.

After buying or making the fishing
lures there is still the responsibility of taking care of and repairing
them so that they are always in good condition. This requires some
effort and time but is usually easy for the angler who makes his own
fishing lures.

Since he makes them and puts them together, he
also knows how to take them apart and repair them. He also has the
tools and fishing lure parts necessary for such work. All the tools
required to assemble the parts and make the lures are explained on this

Fishing
lures in general do not require much care when storing them in a home
or shop. The best idea is to put them into cabinet drawers or
individual boxes so that they can be found easily and can be kept dry.
In humid climates or near the seashore it is important not to expose
the metal parts to the air; otherwise, hooks will rust and other metals
will corrode.
