Getting started
Getting started? How did everyone get started? Did you just say to yourself I can probably do that. Is the best way to learn to just start fooling around with different styles? Is there any good books? I think over the long winter I would like to attempt to shape some wood.

Search through the old threads and should be able to find out just about everything you ever wanted to know.
NJ Tackle sells nice inexpensive kits which are a great way to get the feel for it with minimal investment.

I can only speak for myself... I knew I could do it, and figured it would be a great hobby, more like an addiction, actually 
Started, and still do, by copying what I want to build, will stray from the original, on what I feel I'd like to change, be it shape, length, girth, weight, or hook position... it's all trial and error.
Have fun, and enjoy!

I have 2 left thumbs,but after reading Bassmaster's thread on "How to build a pikie" 2 years ago he gave me the inspiration to start. 
Once i got started there were some really special guys on this forum who helped me  Eveyone here will do the same for you.
Enjoy a new addiction.  |

Thanks a lot guys, I have noticed how everyone on here will take the time to help someone with a question.. You can not find individuals like this any more. This forum is a great resource and support channel.

I noticed the snow in the yard. Does BM fish all spring summer, fall and build plugs all winter?
