How would a person find a schedule of antique tackle shows in the Southwest Missouri area? Thanks for any Info.

I would be interested in buying some to Thanks.

Thanks Funny Farm, I think I will just order some eyes. But it sound complicated I have never done this before. If its not peel and stick Im lost.

Thanks everyone I'm going to hang on to this one. Is there a place to buy just the eyes? Are they very expensive? What color were the eyes?

Could anyone tell me about this bait. It was in my Grandpa's box and I would like to put eyes back in it. Its 3in. long no markings

Lincoya, Thanks I think I got it

Posting Pictures.Could anyone explain how this is done :oops: Can't seem to get it. New camera, and computer illiterate what a combination. This probably is'nt the place to ask, But thanks for any help.

Is the Holographic effect you see on crankbaits foil? Or is it the way that the paint is applied. I dont understand the process. Is it stencil after stencil? Sorrry about all the questions but I don't understand how it is applied or what kind of paint is used. Thanks for any advice...

I ordered some unpainted plastic crankbaits from Janns Netcraft. I opened the bag and they have a very foul odor as a matter of fact they stink! Will it go away? I wet sanded some with soap&water to prep them before painting. Will the paint and devcon 2ton cover the odor? Was wondering if I was wasting my time painting Stinky crankbaits

You can get a rotisserie motor from wal-mart they work great. That is what I use, you can see some cool drying racks on the luremaking tutorials. As for primers and finishes I use createx paints

Thanks Big Splash, Do most crankbaits need a belly weight? And how do you know how much weight to add? I have a million questions I am new to this stuff. There are some things I dont understand , Like how a crankbait hunts, Is it just one out of hundred that does that or is it something that you did and just didnt know it. DO you keep a log book on your baits? Thanks again for the info.

I was wondering about Balsa wood is it strong enough to put screw eyes in? Or do you need to put a thru wire in them they are about 2 1/2" and 3" long. Is it better to split the lure to do this or force feed it thru? Its for Bass. Thanks for any info. Its nice to have a place to ask questions

I was wondering if there is a place to buy Balsa B crankbaits that are not finished? I would like to paint my own for myself. They are my favorite crankbait. Does anyone know where to get them?
