Old/Hard to find lures/colors

Featured Replies

I am looking for a few things but the two that are highest on my list are for my Dad and are as follows:

 

Spinnerbait skirts in Blue and Silver was popular in the late 80s and early 90s. I think Jimmy Houston used them at Truman Lake in Missouri. 

 

The other is any soft plastic baits in a color that Dad and all his old fishin buddies called Puerto Rican. I know that's a little crude but that's what they called it. 

 

He always talks about these old baits/colors and I would like to find some for him to relive old memories if there are any out there. 

 

Thanks to any and all that help.

Picasso has some great black and blue flake spinnerbaits as does Nichols.  Both incredibly high quality brands and catch fish.

 

@Siebert Outdoorswill hand tie you any skirt you can imagine and his spinnerbaits are second to none!

As Pat said, your best bet is to have them made.

If you have a picture of the spinnerbait skirt you're looking for, many of us could build them for you (myself included). 

Some plastics colors are area Specific. If you have any of the originals, send one to one of the hand pour guys. They might be able to come
