if you want to get the maximum use from them. Freshwater lures usually require less care and repair than saltwater ones.

In general, when examining any lure you have made or bought it's a wise policy to repair it if you are the least bit doubtful about its condition. Repairing usually means sandpapering the part of the lure body that is slightly chipped and then touching up with a small brush, using enamels or lacquers.

Replace the hooks with new ones if they are badly rusted. When doing this it is important to use the same size and weight as the old ones so that the action of the lure is not changed in any way. If the damage is too bad and the lure cannot be repaired, throw it away after salvaging any usable parts.

It doesn't pay to take chances with a lure that is weak in any way. You may hook a record fish but lose it if the lure is not dependable. Many anglers who buy their lures in tackle stores often use them until they fall apart, before buying new ones. But if you make your own lures you can afford to use only those that are still in good condition.

It is better to be safe than sorry.
