Walked into Anglers Avenue in Sheboygan, WI this week and was surprised to find a much expanded Walleye selection in their second year of operation. Blades, beads, keep weights, and my personal weakness......custom cranks.

Good selection of Warrior and Yeck blades I hadn't seen before and stand-by's like Tommy Harris and others too.

Picked up mostly blades and Rapala DHJ-12's on this stop but I'll be going back as soon and my credit card tells me I can to get some more blades and custom Shad Raps.

Can't wait to try out some of these colors on Green Bay.

Location: Waukesha Wisconsin		Who painted these? Do they just sell the Rapala DHJ-12's custom painted? How much were they?
Awesome colors.

I'm told they are painted by a guy in MN who is going to be offering his product in WI exclusively through Anglers Avenue. They also have custom Rebel Fastrac's, Rapala Shad Raps, and Rapala DT's in stock. I attached a photo of some of the Shad Raps they had and also a photo of the Yeck blades I bought on my visit.

All custom cranks are $12.99 and blades are $1.69 each I believe.

Sorry for the poor quality, was using my cell phone.

I've been painting my own cranks and blades for a few years now. It's very easy to do, and it's a great way to pass the time in the winter. It doesn't cost much at all to get set up with an air brush and few items that you need to do it.

That's correct, they are not done by JT Custom Tackle.

Nice looking cranks, Hugh! If I attempted to try something like that I may as well be using a box of Crayola's.
