Luremaking

Many books describe in detail the art of tying flies, yet the vast majority of America's licenced anglers - more than 20 million of them - fish for bass and other fish with spinnerbaits, buzzbaits, jigs, and other leadheads. This book provides a complete course in the art and science of making the most popular fishing lures. Livingston states unequivocally that the safety-pin spinnerbait is the most versatile fish catcher ever devised. A lure for all seasons, it can be worked successfully on top, bottom, or anywhere in between, and will take almost every fresh- or saltwater species. And because pinnerbaits, leadhead jigs, buzzbaits lend themselves to changes in design and materials, they give the tackle tinkerer millions of combinations to try.
