Well folks,
It comes with a heavy heart to say that I'm giving up the bait-making end of my business. Given the fact that I've been unemployed for the last 6 weeks (yes, I FINALLY start a new job on Monday), along with a new boat payment, I really do not have the money to keep the bait business running anymore. I will, however, still be taking your custom paint orders, and do not intend on ever stopping that.

With that having been said, All the remaining 80+ baits (out of a batch of 600 or so), are up for sale at the price of $8.00 for one, $7.00 each for more than one, with a $5.00 flat rate for shipping, regardless of however many you buy.

The bait designs are also up for sale. Patterns, and hands-on instruction for all three baits (and prototypes) in my line.
Please see the link to my site below. New pics of what is left will be posted on my site and on this post by the end of the day.
Thanx to all of my customers throughout the last 2 years!
Rob

I can understand your being bummed Rob.....I certainly would be too. The only reason I can build and sell baits is because I maintain a full-time day job. I wish you the best of luck.

Thanx G-man!
I'll still be custom painting, tinkering, tieing up and building bucktails for friends.
Thanx to everyone who has already ordered. It's been nuts around here this morning! LOL

Sorry to hear you are letting go. You have some good baits and very nice paint jobs.
Are there any blanks among the ones you have left?
I wouldn't want to paint over any of your work.
Give it some more thought because you can never tell what the job World out there is going to do. A lot of Companies have moved to Mexico.
My area has lost all of it's Industry because of that.
What ever you decide for sure I wish you the best.
Good luck with your new endevors,

Thanx for the kind words, Doug and Stan!
I hate to give it up, but I gotta take care of Lori and the bank (which made it possible for us to have the brand spankin new boat).
Folks, thanx thus far. The response has been overwhelming, both in orders and moral support. Every order and encouraging word since my original post is a testament that musky fisherman are a cut above everyone else on this planet. Have no fear, i am not quiting Musky fishing, or this board. Slamr, Steve, and Lambeau still has to keep me in check! LOL. (kidding guys, Love ya!)
Rob
P.S. Buy Timberwolf and Bitten Tackle's products! Have custom paints (if not by me) done by Stan the Man! Top notch stuff!
