I saw that, that is just crazy to me. Do you think the buyer is just a collector, or someone who would fish with that lure??? For a collector, I would think that an original in an unopened box would be more desireable than a custom painted bait. For a fisherman, good lord!! I know some modern crankbaits sell for $20-30++. I think I’ve seen links for swimbaits in the $100 range. I can just see the guy sitting on his boat with his cell phone in his left hand, his pole in his right, foot on the trolling motor trying to hold his boat over some snag waiting for a salvage team of divers to come rescue his plug.

Yep I here you Southshore.
Hunter boys has been doing this for years now and, every year just gets better. The old Pre Rapala wiggles are the ones that pull the really big numbers. They are not being collected, they are being fished.

Bass fishermen seem to be a little crazier then we salmon fishermen. The amount of semi pro guys and all the tournaments that take place with substantial payouts are high. Then you move into the pro class and they are pretty secret in what they use. But, there is a tremendous amount of money out there dealing in the world of bass fishermen
.
Hunter boys had at one time there very own bass bait called the bass magnet. The bait looks like a crayfish scooting backwards. When many of the big bait companies were buying others out. The bass magnet was sold to the Bill Norman company but Jack held on to some of the blanks. You will see some at times on his ebay site. He is a very skilled painter and a heck of a nice guy. More of our members have been getting some work done, all have been very happy. He is a Indiana guy, and now is retired moving into painting full time. He stands behind all his work..
We are lucky to have someone with his talents so close, and being a great sponsor to the site. Great work, done quickly, no flaws. Can't ask more from a custom painter.
