The NCB Hybrid-Skirt™
The Hybrid-Skirt lure design blends together bucktail (deer) hair along with a rubber skirt. The bucktail is first hand tied onto the head of the lure. A rubber skirt is then overlaid on top, giving a unique multi-textured appearance rarely seen within the industry. The movement of the bucktail displays a "sinewy" motion, much like the fins and gills of a fish. This natural hair further works to conceal the hook, helping to mask any unnatural shine given off that may result in fish not biting. Additionally, the rubber skirt adds an outward flare to the bait, giving the illusion of a stocky appearance while retaining a nimble profile. Each lure is hand tied with high durability, waxed thread. No rubber bands are used.
About The Brand
After being routinely disappointed in the longevity and overall quality of cheaply made, mass produced bass lures, I began to hand tie my own. Upon posting a few pictures to social media of some experimental lure designs I created (namely the Hybrid-Skirt), a few requests turned into a handful. What started out as a passion project during my senior year of college at Penn State quickly turned into a burgeoning internet business beginning in the fall of 2016. With the help of many friends, both new and old, business has steadily increased since its inception. Despite this, the primary focus, high quality products and superior customer service, of Nate's Custom Baits has not, and will not, change! I am driven by the idea of creating a product that every customer will find a high level of value in.
