1. About Phantom Baitworks
Phantom Baitworks specializes in handmade soft-plastic fishing lures and related fishing products.
Because many of our products are handmade, slight variations in color, shape, size, glitter distribution, and appearance may occur from one product to another. These variations are normal and are not necessarily considered defects.

However, actual product colors may vary depending on:

We reserve the right to:

9. Returns, Refunds & Exchanges
Our return and refund policies are provided separately on our website.
