The reason I ask is because I am a dealer for a lot of the tackle making supplies when it comes to lead based baits. I have been selling locally for a few years now just through word of mouth, and after a long talk, my wife and I have decided we want to try and grow this into a legitimate business.

The reason for this post is to let everyone know that if they need anything from Do-It Molds, to hooks and components, to powder paint, let me know what you use so I can begin to stock up.

We are going to slowly be building up inventory, and want to start with the stuff guys use the most. Also, if you need something that I have in stock, I can just about guarantee the best price of any of the other suppliers. I will be putting in my first major order in the next 24 hours, so I am looking for suggestions on what is used the most.

Right now I figure that the biggest things people make are different kinds of jigs, so I was planning on getting a few jig molds, weed guards, hooks, skirt material, things of that nature. But, like I said, I am looking for any suggestions you may have!

Thanks
Chris

I build rods and would love to not have to pay shipping for components.


You old fart, you did it again!

I will be interested in some jig stuff. I just don't have my list together right now. I've been making screw lock football heads and darter heads for FnF.

Must be difficult trying to earn a living making tackle. Lots of respect for those that try.
