I heard River Run is still in business just on "extended" break... Just not sure how long the break will be. I used to get some terminal tackle from him and it was hard at best to get it sometimes. When he is out he can not be contacted. Not sure what is going on.

Been watching those on eBay myself. Some nice ones on there. Watched a few go for above $50 this last week. I'll just weight down some Suicks for that price

Throwing in the towel? That is new. Maybe I will buy one or two Mantas then... Wonder if the lure/company is for sale if the rumor is true? Would be one hell of a bait/brand to own.

I know several Folks that would buy them outright if that is the case, and they are cash rich to do so.
Paul and Loretta, they are knocking!

I wonder what River Run would be worth? Good rule of thumb is 7 years profits. That company has to have some profits!?! Are the Manta bodies and tails made in the USA?
