Lurenerd Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Exposing my lack of knowledge here....What exactly is a PVC lure? Where do you get the PVC for the lure? Is it carved like a wooden lure or formed through some other process? I'm curious, what is it, and how is it made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRammit Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 You can find PVC trim at your local Lowes or Home Depot... Usually right next to all the decorative wood trim It cuts and sands just like wood (actually cuts a lot easier than wood on my band saw) but it's water proof.... Also lighter than most hard woods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW Lures Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) I would say that one of the current experts on PVC is the one above ^^^^, Mark. Most likely the first to use it, if not its close enough. He has been the advocate for this type of material.

mark poulson Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Thanks Dale, but the person responsible for first using PVC, specifically AZEK decking and trim, is John Hopkins. He has turned lure making into an art. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
