Koppers Live Target blanks
« on: 03/09/21 16:15 UTC »
Hello I'm new here, Im lead to make my own lures because I cant afford the ones I want lol Does anyone know where I can find live target blanks, particularly the 2 3/4 deep running smelt, And the 2 1/2 threadfin?
Can't we get blanks of any company mold. And paint them ourselves for a fraction of the cost? I need these luers in my life, but I cant pay 16 bucks per lures, Those Baby broke bake shad rap Rapala are nice too..
Where can I find name brand blanks?

Welcome to the Do-It forums FisGod!

I use a lot of Shelts blanks that WW has linked and have been very happy with them. Do a simple search on ebay and you'll find hundreds of different blank styles and maybe can find a similar product to what you seek.

The only name brand blanks I know of are Manns and Strike King clear... But they cost the same as a painted model.
