With one glance you are instantly drawn to Tedd McDonah’s Etsy shop. These handmade Recyclures are truly a one of a kind gift for any fisherman. Although they are used only for decoration, the detail and craftsmanship are second to none.
A little about Tedd:
I started making metal objects and jewelry in 1992 while enrolled in college at the University of Wisconsin-LaCrosse. My main focus after graduating was to become more proficient in production of mokume-gane. I began making decorative and/or allegorical fishing lures while pursuing an MFA at Arizona State University. That, in turn, became the basis for my Masters of Fine Arts thesis. After school, I spent a few years in Northwest Ohio teaching at The Toledo Museum of Art and The University of Toledo.

Great way to lure in your sweetheart at valentines! Very Alluring! haha! Sorry I couldn’t help myself – these really are cool and I’m sharing them on my FB page.

Wow…great work! How very different!
WOW!
I said that out loud when I saw these lures.
I think you’ve got to go a step further with these things. A step away from the practical, and closer to art.
Thanks for all the great feedback!!
