Turning your lure design idea into mass-produced products needs clear information to connect designers, manufacturers, and wholesalers—avoiding gaps that delay or ruin projects.

For designers, sketches alone aren’t enough. Share physical prototypes (e.g., wooden lures you’ve tested in real fishing) to let manufacturers grasp core traits: center of gravity, weight distribution, wall thickness, weight position, lip size/angle, and eye placement. Upgrading wooden lures to ABS plastic requires hours of tweaks; 3D printing now cuts prototype costs by replacing traditional sample molds, though it demands manufacturers have skilled staff and proper equipment.

Manufacturers face hurdles too. Without detailed CAD models, replicating a prototype’s swim action is hard—basic concepts force reliance on past experience, risking subpar results. Material shifts (wood to hollow molded plastic) need precise adjustments, and repeated design iterations raise mold costs if specs are unclear upfront.

Wholesalers must balance quality and profit. They need products matching prototype performance to avoid returns or bad reviews. Investing in detailed CAD models and pushing designer-manufacturer collaboration reduces risks: precise specs streamline production, cut costs, and ensure consistent quality.

In short, success lies in clear communication—sharing prototypes, CAD files, and key parameters—and close collaboration across all three roles. This turns creative lure ideas into reliable, market-ready products.
