I write a newsletter for our MI club and was thinking I would do an article for everyone highlighting some of the new stuff for 2010. What I was hoping was, that some of you suppliers would be willing to give me info on your new stuff for my article. Also if others saw something at the shows that would be worth writing about, that would be great. You can post here or PM as well with info or links to your websites. I would also be willing to test your stuff for free!!! Just kidding.
I hope you can help me with this, I need to get it done this weekend. My e-newsletter goes out to a couple hundred people.

Thanks for your help.

You get a bit better reels and rods each year, but lures stay the same...just a matter of improving your craft as an angler...BR

Tim-The wife said it was not a hobby 2 years ago Moved 4 months ago and it took 2 semi trucks to move my lures. Right now I have between 3 and 4 semi trucks of inventory with close to 1 more in production right now. I think I can agree with her at this time but just an obsession though in my mind, not a hobby now... lol

If you're talking about a shallow version of your Super Ciscos and Mag Shads he's not the only one interested.

Hmmmmm. The fact that the lip isn't installed is actually great news. I was interested in attempting to alter the lip on the Super Ciscos and 11" Mag Shads to get a shallower running lure. I was hoping to get something that swam no deeper than 3' but could still handle the fast speeds and something else that stayed on the surface at a slower speed and at faster speeds went no deeper than 6" . It would be a lot cheaper getting one of the bodies and being able to install different lips than it would be to alter finished lures like I had planned since I would undoubtedly ruin quit a few plugs before I got it right.
