I purchased in good faith "Jaws" at the Chicago Musky Show last year in January. I was told that I would have it by summer. Well come and gone and so is my Jaws and a bucktail that I ordered. I'm out $40.00.

Not happy!

Any Ideas who I can contact?

What company was the order placed with? I would try contacting them first, by phone if possible. Orders DO get lost, misplaced, etc.

I think I have the Land O Lakes address on file. Email me and I will get that off to you.

This was through the Owner of Land-O-Lakes tackle company. (Steve)
In April he sent me a letter telling me of a problem they were having with production. He has me on file. I have purchased from him before. But not getting anywhere now.

Last I heard from a credible source was that the investors backed out on Land O Lakes.

Not sure how long they'll be around?

I was told that it will be six more months before I get my Jaws. So he said that they will send the people some bucktails and jigs. They are also sending a letter about the problem they are having. Anyway I am NOT Happy. They shouldn't take orders if they cant fill them. The number is 1-877-6tackle. So everybody should call them and let them know we are upset.

I bet they already know the people who ordered the baits and did not receive them are upset. Maybe the bucktails you get from them can be traded on the Buy. Sell, trade board for a good glider until the one you ordered shows up.

I did get in contact with Jim. He did make good with 6 buck tails and 4 packs of gigs. and a sticker. I would say that he sent me around $50.00 of buck tails alone. The letter also said that when Jaws was available that it would be sent out as well. If I get Jaws along with the bucktails then the wait was worth it.

Anyway, thought you should know.
