I see epoxy sealing as a viable step for sealing maple. I don't see it as a sealing method for doing large quantities of lures. It has to be extremely time consuming and messy. Being that end grain is where water would intrude, I would think pouring down thru wire hole, hook hole, eye cutouts and lip slot would suffice.

True Billy but isn't there exposed end grain when you taper a plug? But I agree ends if plugs hook holes and slots
