IMS Handmade Lures

A small family workshop in Kaluđerica, Belgrade, making handmade lures for big-game sea fishing — and testing every design until it moves right.

About us

A hobby that became a family workshop

IMS Handmade Lures started as a personal hobby in 2017.

Today it is a small family workshop making handmade lures for big-game fishing, based on 30 years of experience in catching fish.

We develop lures through rigorous prototype testing, seeking the ultimate lure movement and a realistic appearance.

How they are made

Built like big-game tackle

What goes into every IMS lure.

  1. 01

    Selected composite materials

    Bodies of selected composite materials, chosen for quality, performance and versatility, mimicking the most common bait fish.

  2. 02

    AISI 316 wire through the body

    Stainless-steel wire runs through the body of every lure — for example 2 mm in the Solo and Fury stickbaits, 1.6 to 2 mm in the Monster Wake poppers and 0.8 to 1.2 mm in the Lupo light-game lures.

  3. 03

    Top-grade US epoxy resin

    Layers of top-grade US epoxy resin protect each lure; where a lure’s description gives the number, it is 7 or 9 layers.

  4. 04

    Rigorous prototype testing

    A lure is developed through prototypes until the movement and the appearance are right.

  5. 05

    Hand crafted

    Because every lure is hand crafted, no two IMS Handmade lures will be 100% identical.
