Custom Painting Crank Baits Over my many years of fishing crank baits, and basically believing that the package color is fine with me; along comes these custom paint jobs and the whole ball game changed. All of a sudden the pro’s want different color combination, from black & chartreuse to pink and blue and crank baits are taking on a whole new look. The pro’s once again change the fishing industry and these air brush companies, or the guy in his garage has found a way to make some cash on the side. As lakes become more and more pressured, odd color combinations become the ticket to winning stringers. Not only the pros but the excitement has passed on to the next level angler and all of a sudden tackle boxes at all level of fishing have odd colored crank baits. Crank baits with finishes on them as refined as the painting on a high end lamp, perfect finishes, all kinds of color combinations and detail beyond belief! Can you imagine telling your buddy you caught your winning stringer on a pink and blue crank, you would get laughed out of the bar as another fish story, but it could be true as there are actually pros painting crank baits with pink and blue combinations. Here is the kicker on this whole deal; you better have some mad money hidden from your wife or spouse. The air brush coloring fad is expensive; as I have been quoted anywhere from 3 to 5 dollars depending on colors and detail for each crank bait painted. So today’s crank baits cost somewhere between $10 and $18 and then add another $3 to the cost and folks you have some expensive lures that can be lost in one cast or the break of your line. I don’t know about you but that tests my pocket book. I had a customer just recently that had two plastic boxes full of specially painted air brush finished crank baits. I believe there were about 17 in each box perfectly air brush painted and he was proud of them. Oh well, it was his money!
