I have plenty around those sizes, I'll put up some photies after work this arv. You can check if they're what you're after.

Hey Dave.

Do you ever try making your own bibs? I know it can be a bit time consuming which is probably the down side to this, however the positive is that I've found you can refine the bib a mm here and there to get your lure swmming exactly the way you want/the fish will want. Once you're happy with it then you replicate. Some polycarb and the cheap shears from supercheap is all I have needed to snip the exact bib shape I'm after.

I've got a heap of 1mm, 1.5mm and 2mm polycarbonate here if you don't have any. Happy to send some up should you decide to have a go, rather than you having to buy a large rolled sheet of it.

Cheers,

Danny.

Dave, I've got some 1mm ali here, you can cut (or I'll do it for you) and shape. Beauty of using ali as against poly, you can bend and tune to suit.
Have plenty of templates here, to pick shape you want. If you don't come and get the 'nude' red cedar Scorpion copy I made you, I'll take to the Expo as a trader.
It's going to cost you one of those made by A&B you have, as I don't own any A&B's in my collection.
Seaweed.

thanks for the offers guys, yes I made a little bib today, but I want to try and get 10 or 12 exactly the same, I have a special order from a well known territory fishing identity.
