Dressed Trebles

[Jim]

Where can I get dressed Trebles for Cranks? Im looking for black feathers, and black and blue feathers on top of the line treble hooks.

This sounds like a job for

BAIT MAN

PC Bait Man that is

 

[Jim]

I can honestly say the sharpest hooks I have ever had the pleasure of being pierced with are the ones that come on Megabass lures. WOW!

 

[Nickk]

I'll try to tie some up on some Gammy red trebles and post a pic.

I don't tie them, but would like to learn! If Nickk doesn't get you straight, TW had some funky colors in the clearance bin, working out to about $1 each. They're pretty expensive, i'm gonna have to learn to tie them, for sure!

I saw that, But they all vary around the white color! Im looking for soemthing that will dress nice with a black lure/popper.

Maybe you can just buy some nice mustad short shanks or owners (or gammys, whatever your preference), buy some fly tying material in black and blue, and tie it on the hook, like you're making a fly on a treble hook! Just an idea

Your right! Im going to try it myself....winter is coming up. Im going to ramp up on my stick making, Buzzbait making and Im going to learn how to tie my own dressed trebles.

 

[Nickk]

not very good pics but I threw these 2 together tonight, no blue though. Are they too long?

sorry about the photo quality...DOH!

 

[Captain Ahab]

Nickk - they look great! Only one way to tell for sure - fish them!

 

[dampeoples]

The do look good, and like everything else hand-made, much better quality

Take a look in the catalogs for lure building. You can buy dressed trebles. I've seen them in several places.

Tying your own is a snap. Fly tying 101. All sorts of materials to use as well. Feather, flash material, calf hair, bucktail...

 

[Jim]

Mattman, I will take a look at flyting101.

NickK those are awesome! You have any black hooks? I would like a couple of the first ones if you can do them with the black hook. You interested in wheeling and dealing? LOL!

 

[Nickk]

Jim,
I'll try to pick up some black hooks this weekend(and some blue soft hackle). PM me your address.

BTW, do you want any flash? I have black krystal flash.
