I'm looking for a certain shaped stainless steel diving lip, which are 1 & 3/8 inches wide, rounded front and narrower square where it goes into lure...its model C in the Moores and the R& H catalogs...would like 40 or so. Any idea where I can get them? Anyone have some they want to part with? Thanks.

There is or was a guy named Spike in Michigan that stamped them. Spike's Lures. I don't have the contact info but maybe someone else does.

I don't advise cutting them yourself. I have tried and gone thru a couple of blades already. It is 3/32 ss and I had it glowing this afternoon. Still have not finished the first one.....

We still have them. We have a new company stamping all the lips and props that River Run was doing. We will be in AZ until April 1 and by then we should have a good stock of all these lips. Sorry to be gone and not filling orders, but, hey, that's what retirement is all about.

I have a guy here in Michigan who uses a water jet CAD. cutter and can cut anything you want. He cuts my 1/4 inch lexan lips for about 1 dollar each. He cuts titanium or Stainless steel for the same price. You buy the material he cuts it. I buy sheets of Lexan and drop it off to him. He stocks Stainless steel and can get Aluminum or Titanium. Lips cost about 1.00 plus materials. Kingfisher

King,

Could you shoot me his info. I have other projects on the way that I may need some custom work done on. I may or may not have the engineer file. Can he help with that if needed? I assume he has some good programs at his disposal...

Thanks,
James
