Location: Eau Claire, WI | I have found some good ones buying Slammer Topwaters and Hi-Fin's. Look at the wings for symetrical installation, if you need them to ride a little lower in the water a piece of lead tape stuck to the bottom of the body works well as balast. You can buy lead tape at a golf supply house.
There are still a few guys making creepers that are not production models but they are far and few between. The ol' boy who was building them just outside of my town quite this year. If you want to fish the old Le Lure ones you will need to spend $100+ each on average.

Location: God's Country......USA..... Western Wisconsin | Plitzzz, try this guy, Chris Hauser, [email protected] I know he had a Lelure Creeper for about $75.00. Lots of jing but that's what they cost now I guess.
Other than that, Laura over at Muskies 101 is making some great looking Creepers. 3 piece jointed, large bait. I saw them at the MN expo. Looked good to me.
