Lure Pricing

[garlien]

I would say 80% of my seasonal inventory comes from flea markets....

The rest comes down to convenience and how many lures I need at one time...

I do my best to support my local store....my ice, live bait, some lures, etc...all come from Fishbones, where Bud is phenominal....More often than not, Bud has lures that I can't find anywhere else or great deals on things like BKDs....

I am not the guy who buys $15.00 lures, I have more than enough luck with lures that are less than $5.00 so even if things are a few more cents there at Fishbones I try to get them there....of course if its 11:30 pm on a Saturday night and my wife sends me to Wal-Mart for toilet paper, I have to find my way to the fishing section and just pick something up....

So are you saying BKD's are some of your favorites?

Not even close, maybe someday someone will Show me how to use one of those damned things....its been almost 2 years since I have had any real success with them....

They do look pretty good in the water, and I have enough of them, if only I could catch something on them....

For now I will stick to the "secret" lures that an old freshwater fisherman that I know taught me how to use....

I like the BKD’s, they will catch fish and they are not all that much $. I just brought 3 still water poppers and they were $8.00 each. I make my own jig heads and I like the “H” style. If you ever need any jig heads let me know I can make them from 3/8 to 1oz and my favorite is 5/8.
