No problem. It's easy.... Carve a wood lure/plug, seal it then paint it. Make a silicone mould from it. Use Acrylic to make a cavity and cast some ballast weights. Attach all to a wire form, place in mould and pour PU resin in. Paint it add a bib, skirt and some hooks. Done!!

N.B. You may have to make 3 or 4 of them till you get the ballast/buoyancy juuuuust right!
