First Strike Lures - New Trolling Spinners, Spoons - 03/27/15 12:38 AM
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!" 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 pls stay tuned.
Thx!
