晴れ時々曇　べた凪そよ風

In October, the squid went offshore and we could not catch them easily.
However, fish such as sea bream will eat a lot of food in preparation for winter.
Red sea bream is not particularly big, but it is delicious with fat on it.
Therefore, I made a lure called Thai rubber to catch red sea bream.


The photo is a commercially available tie rubber. It costs about 1,100 yen for a set including a 100g tie rubber head (weight), a fishing hook, and a skirt.
I bought everything so far, but I heard from an acquaintance that it is fun to make it myself.
So I decided to make it.
First, make it from the tie rubber head. I made a 60g 80g tie rubber head before.

So this time I made 120g and 150g tie rubber heads.


I bought lead balls because I can't shape them.


Drill a 3mm hole and run the plastic pipe through to protect the fishing line.




Apply gesso for better color and let them dry.
This time, I used water-based acrylic paint instead of oil-based paint.
After the paint was dry, I cut out circles from the hologram sheet and pasted them on both sides.
Finally, it was coated with cellulose cement twice. This painting process is the same as the handmade lure I made before.

I made a hook to match my necktie and octopus bait.
The needle was tied with a knot and reinforced with a shrink pipe.
I made a 3-needle system.


The next step is attaching hooks, ties, and skirts.
There are various types of ties, skirts, and mounting jigs on the market, but if you buy the head weight and hook as a set, it costs about 1,500 yen.
If I buy several sets of them, it will be a considerable amount of money.
I have time but no money to spend on fun.
A man of great brains had published his know-how.
It was an amazing idea because of the simple and inexpensive way.
I purchased some silicone sheets and cut them to my liking.


The rubber sheet is punched out to a diameter of 7 mm.


I pass the hook line through the rubber sheet, pass the necktie or skirt through the gap between the two lines, and close the rubber sheet.




I have made many hooksets cheaply in this way.
The storage of these hook sets is easy for the hooks to get tangled.
I found another storage idea on Youtube.


It is the use of tapioca straws.
Luckily my hookset fit in the straw.


I got a lot of very cheap tie rubber sets from lots of ideas.




Next is fishing.
When can I use these for fishing?
I would like to use these jigs that I made over time.
I hope that this blog will be able to report good fishing results.
