Quick take
A complete DIY lure-building kit with blank crankbaits, eyes, hooks and accessories for custom painting.
This 291-piece kit gives anglers the parts to build their own hard-bodied crankbaits, with 12 unpainted blank bodies, 183 lure eyes, 50 treble hooks, 40 split rings, lure stickers and a pair of pliers. Each blank holds steel balls that make a rattle to draw fish in. Plan on painting the bodies in coats, letting each one dry fully before the hooks and rings go on.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
