the-bass-catcher Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 I have seen the metal lips in most suppliers' catalogs, but I've never come across a lip made out of the strong metal like a mudbug or an old bomber. I was looking at the new Bass Pro Shops catalog and on p. 229 they have new Daiwa crankbaits that have this type of lip (they say its titanium, and i don't really buy that!). Any ideas on where to get this type of lip? I was thinking those would go great on custom carved bass cranks, but I haven't seen any custom tackle put them to use...

Coley Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 The old bomber lip was made from .020" Brass. I have made several for myself. Coley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
out2llunge Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 I sometimes use BIG stainless lips, but they're made for muskie not bass. If you want to see them, try moore's lures or luremaking.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
