Custom Bait Lab

Welcome to the Blind Squirrel Baits Custom Bait Lab


Because off-the-shelf is fine—unless you want to catch more fish!

Tired of flipping the same cookie-cutter bait as everyone else on the lake? Want your setup to scream "This is MY kind of fishing"? You're in the right place.


Here in the Custom Bait Lab, you can build your own buzzbaits, spinnerbaits, bladed jigs, and soft plastics exactly how you want them. Whether you’re targeting big bass in muddy water, chasing post-spawn roamers, or just want a bait combo no one else has even dreamed up—we’ve got the tools (and the attitude) to help you dial it in.


Custom Spinnerbaits

Build your own from the ground up:


  • Blade Options: Go classic with a single blade, stir things up with a turbo blade (yep, a blade inside a blade), or go full mayhem with our massive double-blade setup on two separate wires.


  • Skirt Customization: Choose up to three colors from over 30 skirt options. Go subtle. Go loud. Go neon shad on the front and bruised craw on the back. It’s your call.


  • Head Color & Size: Pick your size, match your water clarity, and color-match the forage or completely ignore the rules and go rogue—we’re not judging.



Custom Buzzbaits

Because nothing says "gotcha!" like a violent topwater explosion.


  • Blade Types: Standard single blades for a classic plop, turbo blades for that wild clackety-clack, or double buzz blades for maximum commotion (and chaos).


  • Build Options: Select the blade type, size, skirt combo, and head color to create a buzzbait that’s as extra as you want it to be.



Custom Bladed Jigs

Flash, thump, and fish-catching attitude—all tuned by you.


  • Blade Options: Standard blade for tried-and-true thump or super-sized blade if you want to alert fish three counties over.


  • Custom Colors: Pick your favorite skirt colors (again, up to three) and head color to match the hatch, contrast the water, or just look awesome on your rod.


  • Blade Color: We’ve got multiple blade colors to choose from for a fine-tuned finish that fits your strategy—or your mood.


Custom Jigs

Let’s get jiggy with it—your way.


  • Styles: Flippin jigs, swim jigs, or football heads—each one tailored to your technique.


  • Options: Customize your skirt with any three-color combo, pick your head color and size, and rig it to match craws, baitfish, or your favorite old-school pattern that only you swear by.



Custom Soft Plastics

The lab is fully stocked. Now you’re the mad scientist.


  • Profiles Galore: From the 10” Ribbon Tail Racer to the compact Crawzilla to the all-around Senko Strike, we’ve got 14+ unique profiles ready to be molded to your vision.


  • Color Combos: Choose your base color, add a second color if desired, and toss in the flake of your choice (over 15 options).


  • Glow Up: Add glow-in-the-dark magic for low-light missions.


  • Scent Options: Anise, Craw, or Herring—because smell matters more than you think, and sometimes that one whiff gets the bite.



How It Works

Design your bait. We’ll build it by hand. You go fish it. Simple as that.

Want to bounce some ideas off us before ordering? Need a bait for a weird water color or an ultra-specific bite window? Drop us a line—we love talking tackle almost as much as we love making it.


Why Custom?

Because fish don’t care what’s popular.


Because sometimes purple-chartreuse-motor oil sparkle is exactly what they want.


Because cookie-cutter baits don’t win tournaments.


Because you’re the kind of angler who wants more control—and we’ve got the setup to make that happen.
