I am looking for a company that produces a plastic/rubber/tough material that floats. If there is information please let me know. I am looking to produce a lure and wish to have some information/phone numbers for those different companies. Thanks!

I am looking for hard plasitc/foam material.

Are you looking for an injection moldable grade or a machinable grade?

Odyssey Lures Softtuff is rubber, and floats, and is strong. It is also right in Centerville.

Maybe both. I might want to pour the foam into a mold, and all ready have a couple of hooks and an eyelet preset - or - pour the mold and then add all the stuff? Why, do have a lead? Thanks, Ben.

I can probably help you with some instruction on who to contact, etc.. We produce a foam jerkbait that we can make hard or soft depending on the volume poured into the mold. You might have seen them around. Mainly in MN. We don't sell a ton of them since we mainly do walleye and bass products. I personally love the lure since it's tunable by bending it, but some folks think that the teeth can sink in and prohibit a hook set. So far (15 years worth of use) I have found that presumption unfounded. I'm in the Mpls Metor if you want to see one in action or hit Reeds or a norhtern MN store. Phelpstackle.com Check it out.

Hey bud! How is the great north? I some of the kids at the Muskie Show, they were all looking for you! They thought that you rocked the house!

I am working with a couple of different companies to produce this bait? You will be one of the 1st to use it.

Keep rockn' ! Fitz' (AKA -Bucktail Ben)
