Iland Lures

Iland Lures have earned a world-wide reputation as the finest, most productive artificial lures made today. Striking brilliance and incredible realism are the keys to the success of iland lures. Their brilliance provides the widest possible detection range and a strike–provoking realism that attracts all species of gamefish. Several unique features, common to all Iland Lures, combine to provide outstanding performance.

The unique gold eyes in Iland Lures are the result of extensive tests and development to provide eyes that intimidate, provoke and challenge. They provide that critical step beyond realism that means the difference between a slow days’ catch and a tournament winning performance.
The exclusive use of lustrous nylon fiber skirts gives the Iland Lures unmatched effectiveness and durability. No other material combines the far ranging brilliance, natural motion, indestructibility and lure stabilizing qualities that nylon does. Iland Lures stand up to repeated attacks from toothy predators, making cut-off skirts from Wahoo, Barracuda and King Mackerel a thing of the past.

Custom Iland Lure colors/head combinations available. Call or email info@meltontackle.com for more information.
