~Modern Lure Makers~

1970-Present

On this page you will see lures that [ were & are ] being produced

from approx. 1970 - Present, by some very talented and artistic makers.

Many that started out as one man operations, have now grown so big

they do sell commercially.

 

Most make different models of swimmers, poppers, and darters.

Today's custom makers take great pride not only in their lures appearance, but most importantly, its swimming action.

 

THEY TRULY WANT YOU TO 

CATCH FISH USING THEIR BAITS

  Tom Clayton was a firm believer that the lures being produced today, are also the collectable lures of the future. So, if you have the chance to buy custom plugs, stick a few away. But most importantly fish them!!!
