SWL Idea
Hey Joe,
You got any blue chrome blades? How about half blue chrome like a Kastmaster spoon? I've got some 1/8 oz Stanley jigs with a blue and chrome blade, but the finish is not the same jewel quality as a Kastmaster. I'm think thinking two small blue & chrome willow blades with a mostly white body with a blue back and a few blue sparkle strands over top of mostly white sparkle strands. I'm thinking 3/8 oz. With maybe a 1/4 oz option. Your 5/16 size might be a nice compromise. I actually have a skirt that would do the trick I like better than the skirts I got from you guys last time I made a big order, so maybe just the blades and bodies? -- Bob La Londe Fishing Arizona & The Colorado River Fishing Forums & Contests http://www.YumaBassMan.com -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

We have the ability to produce half & half blades but don't have any now.
Sounds like a good pattern, though. You should make some up yourself and give them a try. What I recommend you do is buy a blue permanent ink, felt-tip pen and trick out a few of your chrome or nickel blades. I've used a red Sharpie on our nickel blades, and most people can't tell the difference between the shiny, red blades I make by hand and the more expensive powder-coated ones. The reflective red (or in your case, blue) finish will be just as effective in the water. The color is easily touched up after an encounter with a fish, rock, or wood scratches the in, and you can remove it and change your pattern easily if you decide to try a different color or pattern. Modifying large, white willowleaf blades by adding chartreuse spots, black ribs, eyes and red gill slits is a trick that one of our Prostaff uses frequently for Kentucky Lake smallmouth. He adds the details to the convex side of the blade, so as the blade twirls it produces a strobe effect. Joe |

.. . Hi Karen, Try calling the company ....They might send you a catalog considering you cant find what you need from a dealer.. I suspect this is in response to my request for info on Blue Fox lures. Bass Pro didn't have any of the ones I was looking for in stock, but I did order from their fishing equipment catalog. They've just arrived, and now I'm itching to get out on the water to try them out. Thanks! Karen C. |
