Posts: 4053 Location: Land of the Musky | That may be a typo on the $14.99. My retail on those will be $19.99. They should be out and ready to go on or around first part of June. Yes on the all white. Actaully I did an all white with the glow plastisol. Hit two birds with one stone  Also an all black this year. 42 colors and two weights (11.5oz shallow and 13oz heavy) for the MegaDs. I almost have 60 total colors on the side lines. Just waiting to see how these go for 2009. Also a little hard to corral 350 or so UPC codes for my SuperD lines... But if any of you have any favorites you do not se out there for swimbaits let me know. I like adding the odd balls to finish up my color lines. I have four chrome/silver colros coming you should all like. Like most of my cool stuff, they were screwups but looked neat so I kept them. LOL James James | ||

Posts: 4053 Location: Land of the Musky | All new colors and sizes are due in at the same time. These are way late IMO anyway. I had them scheduled to be done and ready last December but kept refusing prototypes due to little things and quality issues. Not worth putting a product out if it does not pass all standards. Learned a long time ago a "widget" is only as good as its weakest link. I have failed in the past and will in the future but I just try to keep the failure rate down as much as possible I know you guys will let me know 110% one way or the other...

Posts: 4053 Location: Land of the Musky | Yes, I have a stupid triangle I force myself to not take down that I got in a marketing class a long time ago they made us techie geek scientist take at a chemical company I worked at. Three sides and each side has a word on it. 1) Speed 2) Quality and 3) Price/cost You only ever get two of the three when making a "widget". Each combination of two has its benefits and downfalls....choose wisely Funny thing is, we were always told (or pushed) to go with #1 and #3 and most of the products sucked but they made money and then went on to a new "widget".... | ||

Posts: 4053 Location: Land of the Musky | Hi Jay. I am keeping all original 24 colors and adding up to a final 42 total colors. Here are some of the new ones. These are just color prototypes but a few of the new ones (mix of colors #25 thru #42). I think between the 5 or 6 main line swimbait companies out now with so many color variations everyone should be able to find that favorite color I may expand to 60 colors next year but not sure about that yet? Most of my MiniDs coming are different colors than these too. I made those in more baitfish colors as the bass and saltwater guys like that size of lure. Some real cool MiniD colors! I doubt musky have seen some of the new MiniD colors. Not many spawning salmon, baby Marlin or striper bass hanging out in Mil Lacs. lol Attachments ----------------  New SuperD Lures.jpg (124KB - 93 downloads) | ||

Posts: 4053 Location: Land of the Musky | Another one I thought of would be a reverse gold walleye. So, white body and white tail with a gold sparkle belly but add a gold back and gold side bars (kind of like the perch ones but use gold paint and not black). Even do the same but replace the white plastisol pigment (for the body and tail) with black plastisol. Throw on some red holographic eyes for fun | ||

Posts: 4053 Location: Land of the Musky | PM sent--MI had another one they only made about 100-200 of called the Black Jewel. I heard they sold out of Gander M in a few days never to be seen again but some caught some real nice musky. This is why I don't like to make custom colors. Those guys who fell in love with the color will never find them again. If I add it I will never stop making it. As for the white, there is about 5 different whites you can use for pigments. I personally like the iridescent or what I call pearl white. I doubt the musky sees much difference but the pearl probably catches more customers As someone on the basement board told me a few years ago, lures catch fish, colors catch customers. lol | ||
