The Triple-B crankbaits are crafted by hand one at a time. I put a lot of time into making each bait for a simple reason - because they usually outperform most plastic crankbaits. The prices are ridiculous, until you see how well these crankbaits produce on the water (so don't ask how much until you sit down). There is no plastic crankbait that can compare to a well-built balsa bait. From start to finish, each bait takes several days to complete.
Each Triple-B is carved out of approximately 80% balsa wood and 20% poplar. The poplar is used to help balance the bait, as well as increase the life of the bait and components. After they are carved and sanded, each bait is weighted and sealed. After a few coats of sealant, the baits are primed and airbrushed, followed by another round of sealants to protect the bait.

Angled view of Brown Back Green Frog.
Here's
a 6.5 pounder I caught on the first day of testing. Caught
this one on a Brown Back Purple Frog 2 color.
These crankbaits go through a long process from a piece of balsa to a completed lure. I'm not selling these cheap because of how much time and work goes into each lure. I learned how to build these with a huge amount of experimentation and by reading and watching online videos. If the price is too high - have some fun building your own and you'll see how much goes into these lures. Catching a fish on lure you made yourself is an incredible feeling. The very first bass I caught on one of these lures was a 10" dink and I was happy as could be that I caught a bass on it.
