Custom Bait Shop - Color Pattern Examples

At Custom Bait Shop, every bait painted is a conversation between your rod, the water, and a hungry fish. Below you’ll find our full lineup of hand-painted color patterns—each one tested, tweaked, and tuned to trigger strikes.

From Gizzard Shad to Ghost Crappie, Fire Belly Bluegill to Bloody Bone, we’ve got patterns that look like they swam straight outta the hatchery. But here’s the best part:

🎣 You can get any of these color patterns on any bait we offer.

And if you’ve got a favorite local forage, a picture of your lucky lure, or even a wild idea—just holler. We’ll match it, mix it, and bring it to life. That’s what “custom” means around here.

Scroll down to see photo examples of every pattern we offer. Pick your favorite, then choose your bait. Or drop me a line and I’ll paint somethin’ special just for you.
