Streamers & Bucktails – Joseph D. Bates, 1950 – great for ideas to create your own patterns.

Great book list – didn’t realize there is so much more literature.

Morning,

I found these books on Amazon, used books section, for a good price:

"The Complete Book of Tackle Making"

"Luremaking: The Art and Science of Spinnerbaits,
Buzzbaits, Jigs, and Other Leadheads "

By the way, the videos on powder painting on your site are TERRIFIC! great help for a novice. It really cleared up alot of questions I had, guess pictures do save a 1000 words

Your best bet is to do a search on Amazon or Ebay for the titles. There they just consider them "old books" and you can usually find at least one seller who has it for under $10.

Enjoy!

(But beware...it's addictive!)
