Busy, Busy, Busy

Boy, has it been a busy time ... not just for fishing, but for working on our new business. The tackle store site is beginning to get some sales ... even before we have it all loaded with product. So far we have added over 400 products, and still counting.

Right now we are trying to get our rod components added in. That way customers can build their own fishing rods exactly to their own specifications ... at a reasonable price, too. We have great supplies from manufacturers like Rainshadow, Forecast, Alps, and Solid Works.

We also have a section for reconditioned, or as I prefer to think of it as recycled, rods and reels. They all carry a 30 day warranty and I personally guarantee the reconditioned reels because I am the one who repaired them and got them in top notch working order. Of course, we have them all at terrific prices, too.

Stop by, take a look, let me know what you think of the new store.

Get more, save more, fish more. After all, that's what's most important, right?

Wait for greener Weights

I'm sure you have heard all the hoopla about lead ... the dangers of it and all. Well, fishing with lead weights is a bad thing, too. The lead leeches out into the water and contaminates everything that comes in contact with it.

There are new weights available now in Tungsten. These lead-free weights are better for more than one reason. Of course, the most important is no lead. But, in addition to that, Tungsten is heavier (denser) per its size. Therefore, a 1/4 ounce Tungsten weight is smaller and slimmer than its counterpart in lead. This will make it fish easier, with less hangups, and penetrate cover better.

Sounds like a win-win situation for both Mother Nature and us anglers. We will try to bring you some good deals on these new weights on our tackle site, More Tackle, but in the meantime we still have other weights at rock bottom prices.
