    A friend of mine from Germany was surfing the 'Net a couple days ago and ran across this website.

    Pretty new I believe...but with some cool (& exspensive stuff I may add)

    They look like quality baits, however the prices are ridiculous. They are reproductions of old Musky lures and the original antique lures can be purchased for less than that. The craftsman knows how to make a quality bait,but they are not made of gold.

    Not only is that guy is crazy on his lure prices, his parts are off the wall also.
    Asking hooks for a $1.00 each , small swivels $.50 each.

    I understand the angst guys...but there ARE folks willing to pay those prices.

    I cannot..and most of you can't either :-(

    My perspective on parts...IF you have a Runt / Heddon lure...or CCBC lure that needs hardware...what are you going to do IF you need to sell it?

    JMHO...no offense meant to any of you.

    $65-$175 wow i mean they look nice and all but thats crazy. better hope you never snag on anything. i cant imagine ever spending that on one lure. anything more than $15 is pushin it. i mean i can see if your a collector i guess but i would rather spend 5 to 10 and not be afraid of loosing it. good post though cool to look at.
