InstaMorph is a unique type of plastic that becomes soft at a temperature of 60 degrees. From it you can sculpt anything. After cooling, it becomes durable like ABS plastic. This material is environmentally friendly and decays. To increase its biodegradability, starch is added to it.
In this article, we will look at how, with the help of such an amazing material, it is possible to make fishing lures of any shape.
Materials and tools for homemade:
- jar InstaMorph;
- pan with water and stove;
- fishing hooks of the required size;
- wire (can be useful in large baits);
- rattles (so that the bait makes a sound when posting).
The process of making baits:
Step one. Preparing InstaMorph
First of all, you need to heat the water on the stove to a temperature of at least 60 degrees. Next, InstaMorph should be poured into it and wait a bit.
Step Two We get InstaMorph and knead
Now the plastic has softened and needs to be kneaded into a single mass. Upon cooling, it will begin to harden immediately, so it must be periodically lowered into hot water.
Step Three Sculpt the bait
Well, now you only need to fashion the bait of the desired shape and size. They are stuck around the hook. If necessary, a rattle is inserted inside the body. If the bait is made large, then the hook connects through the wire. That's all, the tackle is ready, you can start fishing. If necessary, the bait can be decorated.
