Book did not match listing photo (pic2) The listings only photograph was of an autograph page (pic 1) which means this seller did not photograph the actual item being sold. The seller had to be contacted twice to get a full refund. The shipping cost was very expensive and item was poorly packaged. I have been buying items from ebay for many years and this is the first time I have delt with a seller whose listing was so blatantly dishonest. Buyers beware!

$10 shipping and took over 2 weeks, refused to give tracking number, the cover is bent but they did not disclose that, poorly packaged and arrived open, overall bad experience and customer service- they just send copy and paste messages. I would avoid this seller.

    Buy this book!

    If you're just getting started or simply interested in making your own wooden lures, definitely buy this book. Dozens and dozens of color photographs on making and painting 11 different lures. The book details how to makes these lures with basic tools most people should already have.

  • Get way to injoy fishing throughout the whole year

    I bought this book to bring my favorite hobbies together. The information in the book is great with lots of pictures. All of the wood-working can be done with very basic handtools. I have already made several lures using the infomation from the book, and with a few changes to make them saltwater friendly, I have caught some big Redfish in the marshes of Louisana.

  • Great wooden fishing lure reference

    I got this book on loan from the local library, along with a couple of others. I read each and every page and was guided through all the processes it takes to take a raw piece of wood and shape it into a beautiful fishing lure. I didn't want to return the book so I ended up purchasing it off eBay. This is by far one of my favorite books and it'll be a reference for many years to come.

  • A highly illustrated book for learning to Making Great Lures simple and fun

    I bought this book, in order to learn more about making fishing lures, and to do this with my grand kids. The book arrived it was in perfect shape, very simple and clear photos, and was very pleased with all aspects of the book. It help me to understand weights and lures and what each lure does. Now we are ready to put our lures to the test. They were fun to make and I am sure they will be fun to fish with.

  • Awesome

    Great illustrated book on making and painting any type of fishing lures. Fantastic!
