Custom Lures & Replica Carvings

Custom Lures

​

Each custom lure is handcrafted to your exact specifications. This pricing list serves as a step-by-step basis for how I calculate the final price. Please keep in mind that price may reflect the materials, design, and work put in to more unique and time-consuming works of art. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about pricing, as I would be happy to work with you to meet your requests!

*FREE SHIPPING on all custom lures*

Size: The base price for custom lures starts at the size you desire. 

  -  Length Price Per Inch (PPI): $12 

Typical sizes for lures are 3 inches, 5.5 inches, and 8 inches. A basic lure of these proportions would cost $36, $66, and $96, respectively. Prices subject to change upon other factors.

​

Accessories: This category ranges from complex lure parts to unique add-ons.

 -  Lure Parts/Add Ons: $5-35

A wide combination of parts are possible, so each is within the price range and calculated within reason.

-For lures made for the water, example parts include lead, feathered hooks, joints, and Lexan lips/tails. These are commonly seen on lures like crank baits and other diving lures, wakebaits, jointed swimbaits, and glidebaits. Testing of lures is already included in pricing with each lure. 

-For lures made for display, example parts include mirrored display cases, small lure stands, real glass eyes, and lure-specific add ons. The possibilities are endless, but these are just a few examples. 

​

Other factors: Previously unspecified additions 

 -  Price subject to requests

If you have seen my work, you have likely seen insane lures that are unlike anything else, representing animals, clothes, and more. Out-of-the-ordinary lures require special planning and crafting. Although specific requests will have different price points, they are absolutely reasonable and fair priced.

Replica & Micro Replica Carvings

​

One of the best ways to commemorate the catch of a lifetime is a wooden replica, either life-size or something that will fit on the shelf. This is one of the finest forms of wildlife art, where a block of wood transforms into a lifelike fish that looks like it could swim off at any moment. Each replica is priced individually based on size, detail, and much more. Special attention is given to each and every detail of your catch. Alternatively, you can chose to commission an abstract carving of your fish as well. The possibilities are truly endless!

​

Size: The base price for Replicas begins with the length and width.

  -  Replicas: (12-40"): $52-$60 per inch

To truly capture a lifelike display of your prized catch, life-size replica carvings are a great way to do so. Since these require much more wood and a larger variety of power tools to craft, they are more expensive than a micro replica that may not require as much time nor tools to shape. Price varies based on the complexity and overall size of the species.

​

 -  Micro Replicas (<8"): $16-38 per inch

Micro replicas are a great purchase for a table centerpiece, bedside, workspace, and much more. These are scaled-down replicas of larger fish that may take up too much space or are out of your price range. Size is up to 12 inches. Common replicas include fish such as bluegill to large sharks. 

​

​

Detail: Bare wood, realistic, and lifelike are a few of many options available

 -  Prices subject to requests

Perhaps you just want a beautiful sculpture of a fish in bare wood. On the other hand, you may want every detail, like scales, mouth detail, and more included. For example, fish like trout and salmon are known for having thousands of small scales. Once again, the possibilities are endless, and it is all up to you! 

​

Display: Bases, Mounts, and More

 -  Bases: $20+

One of the best ways to truly bring a replica to life is through a base. By using a base, you can replicate the habitat of the fish, and even by using elements (rocks, lures, etc.) from when you caught your fish. Another advantage to bases is that you can move the piece anywhere at any time. Furthermore, you can see all angles of the fish, rather than just one side or angle of the carving. Depending on the size and level of detail you would like in your base, prices vary accordingly. We will communicate and find the right price for your request!

​

 

​

*IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to the wide variety of potential options for a fish replica, prices and time frames vary greatly, but always reflect the amount of time, attention to detail, skill, and materials used for each project. Upon your request for commission, we will thoroughly discuss each of these factors. I craft each fish as if it were my own catch and take great pride in your once in a lifetime catch. One hundred percent effort goes into each and every one of a kind piece.*
