Hard to find these the last few years. Randy, the guy behind them is one hellava fisherman and has always supported the Moyer and other local events with generous product donations. I finally replaced mine after 3 years of snaggin on the same jig.

Got mine today with blood all over the envelope. Apparently, whoever was handling the package got stuck by one of the hooks that made it through the side of the envelope.

Hope they are okay and I hope I don't catch anything from all that blood..:eek:

Placed an order a couple weeks ago, but haven't heard anything. Is there a back-log? Did I need to do anything besides send a Paypal payment with what I wanted and my shipping info in the message?
