Can anyone tell me how to change a regular hard bait into a homemade swimbait?

Question

It is to hard to find a swimbait in the store for less than $15.

Answer 1

If it were me I would question the amount of time I'd have to spend modifying the lure versus how much I can make during that time frame. I think you will find that it is not worth the time and effort.

Answer 2

With all of the new plastics out these days, swimbaits are alot easier to rig up these days and are also a lot cheaper than 10-12 years ago.

There are dozens of companies that produce these baits, here are some good ones for you to take a look at.....................................

Answer 3

Actually Berkley makes a swimbait called a hollow belly swimbait or something like that. It comes with weighted hooks and 3 swimbaits for around 10 dollars. You can find them at bassproshops.com or berkely-fishing.com and may also be found in a baitshop.  Hope this helps
