Do-It Blades Colorado Smooth Nickel #3 50ct

If you're tying your own spinners, spinnerbaits, and buzzbait heads, Do-It Blades Colorado Smooth Nickel #3 blades are built to the exacting standards that separate a premium DIY lure from a compromise. These are the blades serious anglers and lure builders choose when they want correct shape, size, and design without the guesswork. The smooth burnished finish protects your line and leader from the nicks and burrs that cheap blades inflict—a detail that matters when you're fishing for bass, pike, or walleye where abrasion failure means a lost fish.

Each pack ships 50 blades, giving you plenty to experiment with blade combinations, colors, and weights as you dial in your preferred action and flash. The Colorado profile delivers that classic, wider blade action that generates vibration and flash at both slow and moderate retrieve speeds, making it a dependable choice whether you're working shallow cover or deeper structure.

Do-It Products has been the go-to source for lure-building components since the DIY boom in bass fishing, and their blade quality reflects that heritage. When you build with these, you're not compromising on materials—you're controlling your lure designs and staying in the water instead of retying broken leaders on the bank.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the Colorado blade profile good for?

Colorado blades are wider and rounder than willow or Indiana profiles, which gives them a slower fall rate and more pronounced vibration. They work well at slower retrieves and in conditions where fish respond to flash and thump rather than speed and flash alone.

Why do smooth edges matter on spinner blades?

Rough or burred blade edges can fray monofilament and cut braided line during the retrieve, especially on longer fishing sessions. The smooth burnished finish on these blades minimizes that risk, so your knots and leaders stay intact.

Can I use these blades on both spinners and spinnerbaits?

Yes. The #3 Colorado blade size works on spinner rigs, spinnerbait heads, buzzbaits, and other blade-based lure platforms—as long as your wire, shaft, or frame is sized for a #3 blade. Check your lure-building supply specs to confirm compatibility.

What does the #3 size mean?

Do-It blade sizes are numbered by profile and relative proportions. #3 is a mid-range size in the Colorado lineup—larger than #2 but smaller than #4—suitable for most freshwater spinnerbait and spinner applications.
