mark poulson Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) I would contact Jim at Predator Bass, and ask him. He's honest, and shares, if he can. Edited January 20, 2014 by mark poulson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bass kid Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Look at alibaba.com for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virginia Junkie Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Look at alibaba.com for them They look the same as what these guys are selling but they have been through all the suppliers and only buy from the ones that make good blanks. Buying from alibaba.com is like playing Russian Roulette to say the least. A lot of what you buy will be crap 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look hard enough and research the companies you could be surprised at what you find. I just ordered 100 tungsten weights. 50 worm/flipping and 50 drop shot for 81 dollars shipped to my door from a very well known company.

saltshaker Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 I bought 150 various blanks from the above-mentioned website and roughly 60% had issues that I could not deal with. Never again!! My advice is to stick to Jim (Predator), Dudley (unpaintedlures) and the other reputable ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swimjig50 Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 That price is high. Can be purchased for less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Predator Bass Baits Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Sorry but you do not know were I get my blanks, Most of my blanks are my molds that I had built. I have been on alibaba and good luck with that. I do not buy anything off there, been there done that... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swimjig50 Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Pretty much all Knock Offs are made in China. Poor Quality and perform nothing like the actual baits. I have tried many. But they are just not the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Predator Bass Baits Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) right you got it, (you've bought some ) I have purchased from many different ones, it is just finding which ones are good and which ones are not going to rip you off. The guy I am sure your talking about, be prepared to be shorted and have bad lures with no refund. and pay extra for import fees.

SureShot Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I've bought plenty and they were all crap. Even 1.5s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I've never gotten a bad KO from Predator Baits, and Jim actually follows up with any questions I email him. I get tungsten worm weights, $18.90 delivered for 20 3/16 green pumpkin with inserts, from Alley's Tungsten. www.alleystungsten.com info@alleystungsten.com 615-788-6477 They also actually answer emails and phone calls.

bass01 Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I also haven't gotten a bad KO from Predator or Unpainted and think the 1.5s work just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
