The guys that build lures on jomusky's site make good stuff. You can't go wrong there. Two other quality lure builders put their stuff on ebay. Their ebay names are hawaiisbest60 and fishfobass.

Hi,
I found a guy that makes his own baits online. His website is www.danczyk-lures.com I've never used them but was wondering if anyone else has. They look like good lures.

hey esox4me, I fished with a guy last fall who calls himself uptown. He trys his baits out on the city lakes here in mpls. He makes some exceptional baits. We stay in touch and he's given me 4 to test this coming year. He also gave some to some guys at thorne who were nice to him. I think he calls them "true glide". He wants to prove they work before he sells them, I kinda sucked up to him to get a couple, then he gave me a couple more this month. I didn't buy any wabulls, new topwaters or cranks at the muskie expo here because I believe these are going to get the job done. Look for him on these boards. capt bigfish

Freds Tinseltails is something you should check out. He's now making a larger variety of the tinseltails. Multiple ties and color patterns and stuff like that. Saw the new ones at a show a few weeks ago and they are awesome. He also makes a mean looking spinner bait now too. Only the original tinseltails are on his website yet. He is going to be udating his website soon I guess. Here is the address.www.tinseltails.com

I would second the point for that guy on Ebay -- fishfobass. He makes some great stuff. I just got a box of six lures from him yesterday! The new gliders he has now, I think he calls them a 'spring glider' are AWESOME! They sink slowly tail down, and dart in all directions, they also have a large rattle, so you get a good "Thud" on every jerk. He also makes some good thumping shallow crankbaits.

He tests every lure, before he puts them on Ebay, so you can buy with confidence that the lure you buy will perform.

Search for Musky Handmade and you should find him. Tell him Steve Sedesky sent you.

** Just checked -- he has one glider and a few cranks on there right now. **
He chnaged his name to fishfobassormuskies
