I'm trying to figure out how to make a lure out of a fork. If anyone has any ideas let me know.  TT^

Split on the top. Drill a hole on the lower portion of the shank. Bolt on a BAH (big ass hook) like you would on a bunker spoon. It will probably extend past the tines on the fork!

Ok, slow day at the residency today so off to the dollar store.  ;D I purchase four forks for $.98, here's one of them...

The beginning of a new lure.




Got my Dremmel tool out and removed two tines on the fork and sharpened the remaining two.





Put a bend in to form a hook and will give it a go tomorrow.   TT^

I'm sure that will work Joe. t^ Why not?  Everything else you've tried has.  clp

I was thinking of something a bit simpler.  One hole in the handle, attach an assist, and voila!  A homemade butterfly fork! ;D
