Saugerman Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Has anyone ever ordered wart blanks from Shelts, before? If so were you satisfied with them? Sure would like to here from someone who has purchased them before. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Never got them form Shelts, but you cant beat predators warts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 I second the Predator wart blanks. He worked with the factory to get them right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osutodd Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Predator's blanks are the real deal. I have vacuum formed stencils made from a pre-rap wart, and they snap right onto his blanks. Putting them on a more recently made wart, you can feel the stencil flexing to conform to the lure. I think part of it is the bill angle is slightly different. I can't see the difference with my eye, but it's there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RM3 Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Never used Predator Baits warts so I have zero opinion of them other than they are pricey. The wart blanks from Shelts and Cedar Run Outdoors are good, true running blanks but they are more like the modern, post Rapala Storm lure. They do not exhibit the hunting action of the pre Rapala baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
