I have always loved rollie and hellens, a bit on the pricey side but good customer service
httphttp://www.muskyshop.com
or Thorne Brothers has a pretty good selection
http://www.thornebros.com/
and if I can't seem to find anything from those two sites I usually check
Big Wood Musky lures
http://www.bigwoodmuskylures.com/
I also recommend contacting or searching for the individual dealer of the lure. Lets say you really got your eye on a custom hog head top water or what ever, just do a quick search using a internet search engine and go directly to the manufactures site. This is often the best approach to do a little research on a particular bait. You will often find good pictures of all the color combinations offered that are not always shown on the sites above.
Finnaly if you don't mind used or slighlty used baits check out the Musky First Forums. Great place to find cheap baits and do a little research!

Chris said it all. Rollie & Helen's has awesome costumer assistance (their good folks). Aaron at muskietackle.online will get you what you want likely even if he doesn't have it in stock and he's got great prices. And perhaps best, I've bought a bunch of used stuff from the guys on muskiefirst.outdoors and everything has come thru and been exactly what I expected. Only deal there is to have patience for finding what you really want and being quick to the punch as a lot of guys are looking at the same baits. Also, there is just a ton of information on that site and muskyhunter.com (and of course in their mag). I've learned alot this winter and can't wait to put some of the new knowledge to work catching fish. (Let's hope for an early Spring.) Ebay can have some good deals as well but you'll have to sift thru a ton of stuff you don't want (tried to put that nicely).
