Tm Customs Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 I have never bought any thing from mf before and dont know there web adress so any help is appricated. Also are there plastic colors better thank lure craft and how is there plastic? Thanks, Tm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 You can find them here..... www.fishingworld.com/M-F-Manufacturing/ I like Lure Craft's better than MF, but MF has colors that Lure Craft doesn't offer (crayfish, amber green, blue smoke pearl, earthworm, etc.). Also, their pearl white is much better than Lure Craft's; much more of a brilliant white. As for the plastic, the quality is outstanding, but very expensive. Calhoun is the best way to go. The only downside is softener. You don't need to add any softener to MF's super soft formula, whereas Calhoun's hand-pour mixture is not nearly soft enough.

Tm Customs Posted July 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 I think I am going to stick with Calhoun and lure craft, MF is a rippoff. Thanks AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azbass Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 Don't be too quick to write off M-F as a rip-off. They supply the absolute best plastic of anyone. They ship quickly and I have never had a backordered item. Admittedly, they probably are geared for larger orders, but the quality and service they offer are unsurpassed.

woodsac Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 I wouldn't call it a rip off, but not everyone can afford to $30 per color on flake. This is only my 4th order with MF, and the 2nd one I've had to wait on. I placed my order on the 7th, they said it shipped on the 12th and I'm still waiting. I'm not saying this is any worse then LC, cause it's not. It's just frustrating that we have so few options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azbass Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 Last time I checked (I ordered this am) you could still get 1/2 lb. of flake for less than $12.00. They also sometimes run specials on smaller amounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodsac Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 Sorry, missed part of what I meant to type. I meant that not everyone can afford the $12 for a single color of flake and $15-$30 for a single color of powder. But I do like their powders!

Tm Customs Posted July 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 Hopefully Dlew will be stocking all of our coloring needs soon enough and we will no longer have to deal with LC and MF. Tm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
