    Where does everyone get their crankbaits for painting?

    Where do all of you that paint cranksbaits get the ones you paint? Wondering if there is somewhere that you can buy used ones that the paints beat up on, or unpainted ones in the brand names. I can get bandit and a few others in colors that are not popular for around $3 at one of the local shops but really want to get some Rapala DT series baits to do.

    For DT copies that are plastic not wood, try Jim at Predator http://www.predatorbassbaits.com/id85.htm and he is a sponsor as well.

    Buying the actual DT's is tough there arent many deals to be had the best way I've seen to get them is by watching ebay and buying them in lots of 10 or 20

    Cheaper to keep a kid in tourney fishing than paying attorneys to keep them out of jail !!

    Matthew is right, there are some deals on this board as well. I've bought a ton of older hard to get baits new in the package from http://www.bbcboards.net...lures
    Van has been really good to deal with

    if you are willing to buy several at a time theres usually some good deals on EBAy. you can sometimes get DT's in bulk for around $3-$3.50 each depending on how many are in the lot.
