It is the season.
I was a little slow on the uptake this year, with only two Christmas-themed lures heading out to a couple of good bass fishing mates. These were simple, festive takes on my usual handmade timber bass lures, built more for fun than fanfare.
Thinking about it now, it’s been many years since I last made Christmas-themed fishing lures. Those early attempts were a visual fail, questionable colour runs, but they were a clear winner in action. The fish didn’t care, and that’s always been the point.

Seasonal lures are a reminder that lure design doesn’t always need to be serious. Sometimes it’s just about sharing a laugh, testing an idea, and putting a working custom lure in the hands of good people.
Maybe next year I’ll get myself sorted and start early, but then again, that’s part of the tradition too.
By the way.
Merry Christmas
