Default Old trolling lures

I am looking for lure heads from old offshore trolling lures. If you have old lures that you just don't use, because they don't catch, I don't care, I'm not looking to fish them. If you have some old lures buried in your closet and you want to get rid of them, contact me or send me pictures of them at ebbtideandy@yahoo.com.

I'm particularly interested in old "SCH" lure heads, Bob Schneider, Doornobs, Black Bart, etc. Skirts don't matter, I'm just interested in the lure heads.

If you don't have any, but know of a tackle shop where I might find some, old cheap lures, let me know too.

Thanks

Hey Andy:

Planning to take moulds off 'em?

There was a cheap source for Doornob heads in one of the earlier threads. Personally I'm not a big fan of this head style myself as the wasp waist is a potential weak spot that could easily break on a vicious blue marlin bite (unless you're using polyurethane or a higher strength resin). That's just me though.

Good luck trying to get any of the classic old Schneider or Bart Miller on the cheap - hey anyone letting any of those go, let me know too! I'll gladly do some custom baits in exchange.

Regards

P.

you get them popping up on ebay once in a while...but they don't go that cheap
I've lost out many times on bidding runs especially on blackbarts... nomatter how beaten up they are there are lots of people willing to buy them and re-skirt

If they hit and break it that's a problem I'd like to have any day.
