1. Cut open and flatten an aluminum can. With thick gloves, cut the can into a square sheet of aluminum.
2. With metal shears, cut the sheet into a spoon shaped piece. Cut several in various sizes if different sizes of lures are going to be made. They can be anywhere from one to four inches, narrowing to one end. The outcome should look like a small prey fish.
3. The next step is to cut a slit in the head of a clothes pin, about a half inch deep. Add some strong adhesive into the cut and insert the aluminum fish into the slit.
4. A hole can be drilled on the bottom side of the lure for placement of the hook. Any hook can be used. Use the same glue to hold them in place.
5. The legs of the peg should then be cut off flush to the head of the clothes pin. A hole can be drilled from one side of the front of the pin to the other. A stick pin with beads on the ends can be glued to create the illusion of eyes
6. Next step is to paint the lure. Bright colors such as orange and red seem to attract more fish that the duller colors.
