more worthwhile target for a larger pike. For my other template I intend to try designing a glider type jerkbait.
I want the shape of the lure to closely resemble the shape of most of the prey fish in my local waters.
Making The Templates
First I drew my 'fishy' shapes onto some hardboard using a pencil. I figured that hardboard being thicker and
stronger than cardboard would be a better material for making the lure templates. In hindsight it was not necessary to use hardboard at all - ordinary cereal box cardboard would have done just fine and would have had the
advantage of being much easier and quicker to cut out!
