ING Posted August 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Lure Parts Online . Thank you very much! It is good website - new for me. Unfortunately they have only 1/8 internal diameter. It is good only for hooks and I've order some. I also looking for bigger diameter for body - like Mapp's "flying C".

smalljaw Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 http://www.otetackle.com/materials/body-material/jelly-rope-large The link is for a place called "over the edge tackle", if it doesn't work go there and click tying materials and in the search box type in large jelly rope. It is a soft tube that comes in a bunch of colors that you can use for a lot of different things. I hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found it but unfortunately colors are not bright like Mepp's. Probably I'll turn to powder paint.. Thank you again!
