Brick Steel Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 Has anyone used Shelt’s DT-16 blanks and are they good quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugarHillBaits Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 I have they are really wierd you can almost see in his picture the have dimples like a golf ball all over the bait, bait runs good but does make a little different when painting to get smooth transitions with the dimples I order baits from him all the time but will not order those again ( customers didn't like the look of them either) however predators are very nice!

Brick Steel Posted July 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 SugarHillBaits, thanks for the input. I noticed the dimples and was wondering about that. Barlow Tackle DT-16s have the dimples as well. I have used Predator blanks before and they worked great. I was hoping the Shelts DT-16 blanks would work because they are less than half the price, but oh well. Too bad no one seems to make a DT-16 with molded in scales, fins and gill plates like the Cedar Run DT-10 - that bait paints up really nice.
