For all DIY enthusiasts, here is a book that gives ideas. Indeed, making a fishing lure gives pleasure and when he catches fish, the pleasure is multiplied tenfold.
This book written and illustrated by Michel Luchesi gives tips and tricks to tinker with decoys. From the spoon made with a beer bottle cap to the more complex lure cast in a mould, all shapes and techniques are described.
One may reproach the absence of photos of the realizations, the author having chosen to make the step-by-step with computer graphics. This choice is relevant to show the different stages of construction, but does not really highlight the problems of construction or finishing.
This book divided into 2 parts tackles lures first and then comes in the second part on flies. In the end 50 models are proposed for construction. No doubt that an angler will not be interested in all of them, but he will easily be able to pick and be inspired to complete his fishing box with very personal models.
