[cool][size 3][font "Times New Roman"][#0000ff]If you make your own jigs and lures, you should make a list of the items you use and then shop around to find the best quality and prices. This thread will be made a sticky post and will be kept locked so that only the moderators can add new items from time to time. Any questions or comments about specific suppliers or supplies should be made as a separate post below.[/#0000ff][/font][/size]

[size 3][font "Times New Roman"][#0000ff]I will start off the thread by providing links to some of the main suppliers and then sublinks to specific products from their online stores. Using the REPLY function, I will then cover some of the most often needed items and the better places to find them.[/#0000ff][/font][/size]
