As a kid I grew up making these nifty homemade bottle top lures, they are super simple to make and can be great for family time. They also make for a great fishing hack, in case you are stranded and need a little ingenuity. The only things that you need to create your own bottle cap lure include:
A drill and a 1/16 ounce drill bit
Split rings & split ring pliers
A #4 or #6 treble hook
BB’s or split shot sinkers
Drill holes in both sides of the cap and be sure to leave enough clearance from the rim, so that the integrity of the cap stays intact. Utilize your split ring pliers to open the rings and start gradually rounding them onto the cap, add a ring to both sides, once completed you can add your treble hook. Lastly, pour in a few bb’s and squeeze the cap closed to prevent them from coming out. You can use your hand or a pair of pliers to aid in close the cap.
Obviously in a situation where you are stranded you would not have access to these essential tools and would have to improvise. Whenever I venture into the woods, I always have a small care pack that includes fishing line and hooks. I would advise you to do the same for good safety measures. If you enjoyed this fishing hack I would ask that you please give a thumbs up, subscribe and share. Thank you and until next time, we will see you on the water.

I use these SO much for trout that it’s practically the only lures I own.
I actually made me some just messing around one day while being bored I put split shots in mine and used the end of a feathered beetle spin
I'm new to fishing so I have to ask.. the lure is the bait or would you add bait?
This is definitely FAKE!! I had tested all hacking tools from youtube and just ViberHax0r helped me. You can look for it on one of the search engines like google…
People, the hack in this video doesn't work. Out of all these tools, only ViberHax0r works. It may be found on the search engines 🙂
twisted tea caps works great I caught a sauger on it today at the river 💯🎣
I like that for survival. In my survival situation, I will make sure to carry a box of split rings and a set of treble hooks, along with needle nose pliers and a portable drill…lol
Hey I'm doing a survey asking 100-500 people if they would sell their homemade baits and lures on my website? There's only one fee and that is 15% commission off every item you sell.
! Exactly what a lure should do, put fish in the boat. allabout.wiki/k8us?….. This really excites the bass and they crush it.
Wow just simple make a lure,i will try to make like that…
I hope a big fish strike with this simple inovation lure and fish can landed with success.
Thanks for sharing your inovation …
I tried it and it works! I catch more than any of my Rapala. I made 2. One I added ear foam protection to the inside but left enough room for BBs to rattle.
Im so interesting. I want to trying.
Please support my channel.
I'm from Indonesia.
"….i got these split rings. They're really cheap, like $8.00." Now maybe its just me, but thats not cheap!!!! 😮
