azsouth Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 You might try Fishhead Custom Lures .... I have not personally bought any from him but he took over the best supplier I have found. If you do buy from him I would sure love to here how the quality and service are. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD_mudbug Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 I have ordered from Predator Baits a few times and like their quality. I have also had good luck with Dinger, Cedar Run and Shelt's. In case you did not see it, there is a pinned post at the top of the Hard Baits forum with a good list of blank lure suppliers. They each have a different selection of blanks. If you test blanks before you paint them, you should seal the line tie and hook hangers with a bit of superglue. Sometimes there are tiny holes that can let water in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryF2858 Posted November 10, 2022 Report Share Posted November 10, 2022 Fishhead took over dingers and is just getting going, so selection is low but it's getting better all the time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishhead15 Posted November 10, 2022 Report Share Posted November 10, 2022 thanks for mentioning me! I own Fishheadcustomlures.com, I recently took over for Dinger Baits. Website launched back in August. I am slowly building up inventory. It is a process, but I will eventually have all the same high quality products that Dinger offered in the past. I am doing my best to fill Brian's shoes in terms of customer service. I understand the importance of good communication and timely shipping. I try to respond to messages same day and am I getting orders out in 1-2 days Next week I will have restocks of the Popper, Point5 dd crankbait, and new stock of the S crank ko with holographic foil and 4 and 5 mm split rings. Tracking says these will arrive Monday and hopefully can get them on the site that same day I also have lil john medium divers, 1.5 one knock squarebills in clear and holographic, 1.5 silent squarebills, and P78 medium divers all on order. I will be ordering more stock next week, not sure what that will be yet. Probably restock of other popular items that recently sold out. Most orders are taking 4-6 weeks to ship from the suppliers. The duo style baits (d100 and d120) will be a while as that supplier has a large minimum quantity I am not able to meet yet, but those blanks are high on my priority list Eric 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azsouth Posted November 14, 2022 Report Share Posted November 14, 2022 Alright guys, I did put in an order from Fishhead lures on the Nov. 12th and they are in my hand on Nov. 14th!! That's amazing to me! Baits look good but until I paint, finish and test.... I can't say how good they are. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would test them before I went to the trouble of painting them, in case they don't work or have problems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
