Hey thanks guys I'm wanting to try this but just about to get started. For basic construction I know I'll need the silicone, the resin and micro-balloons, the wire for the harness and hooks of course. Do you recommend buying a hard bait kit from someone like Make Lure, or would you just buy the components separately? I just want to start with reproducing a good top water lure for redfish, sea trout or other inshore fishing. Thanks again!
