Are you still making any lures? I'm looking for jigs if you are, something like a snapper slapper, or a buck tail .

Why don't you just buy a snapper slapper then? They're 7.99 for a 7oz at Buccees .

Cause Dulcy will profit, not some Bucees

Fixed it, my apologies

Wish I could help ya there Ryan. But big game trolling lures are my forte. Marlin, wahoo, tuna, dodos... I speak all that. I know Snapper Slappers, too, but don't have the molds and such to play in that market.
Ryan H.
all right, thanks

Stuart, do you have a web site where I can look at your lures??
Thanks (thumbs up emoji)[/QUOTE]

^^This^^

I like to buy from forum members whenever possible.
Stuart
Thanks, guys. Don't have a website at present. Much of what I do is custom work, so it's not like I have 30 of the same lure to market. Occasionally, I will do a run for a tournament that's all the same basic lure. But most are one-offs. Be happy to post some pics.
RJTaylor
Yeah, that would be great.

One of my clients in the NW makes custom lures using automotive coatings such as epoxy primer, basecoat colors and clearcoats. Do you do the same?

Where's the pics?

Any 9" sized lures for dolphin and wahoo?
Stuart
Here's some at this link. My standard size is 9 inches on most of them. The Fish Whistles (venturi jet, my design) are about 14", as are some of the bigger marlin lures.

Those other retards must have Stuart jammed up because I have not heard from him regarding prices. Will give you a shout if and when he can break loose from trying to babysit the "tards"!!!!
Stuart
I don't have an official price list, but most of the 9" lures I sell are only $20 unrigged. I charge $15 for rigging them how ya want them... leader test, hook size, etc. Specialized larger marlin big game lures go for about $45 each, unrigged. These are usually the 14" ones. Piped heads are more simply because they cost more to make. But they smoke like the dickens.

Those are the basic prices. I have some inventory on hand, but mostly build to your specs. You pick the head style (slant, bullet, scoop, etc) you want and skirt colors. The pictures in the link I posted are all good examples of what's available. I don't always have everything on hand, but have a lot of head and skirt stock.
