It's been a great first full month peddling these lures...I've spoken with some really nice people and twisted up a ton of spinners! Kinda cool to be getting all these larger orders but then you're like "dang...now I gotta twist up 100 spinners!" crazy Anyway, here's an update:

R&B "Candy"
Created by applying translucent paints over a genuine silver base resulting in beautiful metallic finishes. We already do the candy colors on the spinner bodies but thought we might sweeten' up a few blades and spoons this month too and so far the response has been really great. A few examples pictured below.

Let's Get Hammered!
We just added hammered front french blades to the standard spinner line-up which means that we now have over 60 different spinner variations in stock in sizes #4, #4.5 & #5. A few of those also pictured.

You Have a Friend in the Lure Business!!!
One of the cool things about doing this and working with Rob in particular is that I can sit here and dream up pretty much any blade in any color/pattern and Rob will make it for me. He might give me the "you sure you want that" look now and then but he's been a good sport. That same thing goes for you guys! Anything you don't see on the website (www.firststrikelures.com) is a special order item which we are happy to do - we already do dozens each month for people who ask. All standard blade types (French, Colorado, Indiana, etc) in sizes #00 through #7...and if you can imagine it we can probably do it. It doesn't cost extra, you don't need to buy a bunch at a time and shipping as always is just $2.99. Now is a good time to contact me and get those special orders in as I can see things are only going to get crazier as the year progresses.

On Deck
We are continuing to expand our offerings. Up next are #3 spinners, some really tiny genuine silver and candy blades for you kokanee & trout guys and some very cool trolling hardware including a few things you've probably never seen before cuz...well cuz I made 'em up thumbs pls stay tuned.

Thx!

Those spinners are the best on the market hands down.

The candy and hammered blades need to be a permanent item on your site.

Can you share a timeframe for this? Will they be offered in the same array of colors as your 4's and 5's? There's 1 in particular I'm interested in for size 3.

Within a week or so Eric. Starting with a limited number at first that we'll continue to grow. First offering in #3's will be gen polished silver, brass and black blades combined with candy blue, candy pink, brass and black bodies. One cool thing about R&B #3's is that they are .032 thickness just like the #4's and up...mini thumpers.

We can do #1's and #2's in these as well. As always, if you're looking for something you don't see us listing just lemme know and I'll have it made for you. Special orders obviously take a little longer to get than standard stocked items but we're happy to do it and you don't have to buy a ton at a time.

Check it out! R&B trolling spinners now available! We're starting to roll out what will eventually be a solid R&B trolling spinner lineup...first up are cascade wide & Indiana blades to get things started. These are R&B blades so you know the quality is high and I have them priced to move at $5.99. Stay tuned for more new stuff this week!

New today: R&B Casting Thumpers

I'm calling these "Casting Thumpers." Big and heavy #5 (aprox 3/5th oz) casting spinners in classic trolling spinner blade patterns. These puppies cast a mile, dive deep and spin with ease telegraphing that rod tip vibrating "thump" that tells you it's working perfectly. Perfect for big water casting from bank or boat. Got a few of these in stock now in the "limited edition lures" section of firststrikelures.com

In prep for the season we are continuing to build up our trolling spinner lineup. More are on the way and custom orders are not a problem. Any blade/pattern/bead/hook combo you have in mind we can probably do so feel free to ask.
