Hey guys,

been looking on the net for about an hour now and can't find any helpful information to get me started on making some large stick baits for mackerel and GT's.

Anyone know of a good source to check out?

Cheers guys,

Ces.

I’ve seen and bought these before to paint for friends.

They come with everything you need to make a surface lure or stick bait. Might be a good place to start to then go on and make your own.
They come with all the hardware you need, through wire, weights,swivels ect.
