Southern Yellow Pine (SYP)
I've recently been attempting to make my own plugs and am starting to have some success with the lathe and drilling. So far I've ben using blanks made out of southern yellow pine because that's what I have lying around and it seems to work well. However, I'm wondering about the practicality of using this type of material for a lure I'm actually going to fish with. Does it stand up well to the rigors of salt water? Experiences appreciated!
