It's a sad state of events in this country when a busnines like this closes its doors, to places where some of their products will never be used. Northland tackle produced some of the best ice fishing lures for decades. It's the same with lindy being gobbled up by a bigger company only to produce products that were never made with the same quality as the original. It's a sad situation

Lunk, this is just like Bass Pro Shops buying Cabelas. It sucks and the products will never be the same again.

So sad a man was able to sell his business and retire? For fucks sakes get off the soap box.

End of an era. Maybe if they do go Temu quality it’ll leave a hole in the market for someone new to step in.

That's kind of the reason I started the other thread on discontinued lures, the biggest reason quality has hit the crapper is because everything is made overseas so the quality us older gents remember is gone. Granted with quality the price is a factor but I still will pay for quality products that I know will last longer even over many seasons where these products will sit. Oh well just thought I would share with the community.

Their spinnerbaits are the best by far. I hope I can still get a version. I know of no other brand which allows attachment by clip.

Stop feeding the trolls, ignored is the best viable option to live a happy bliss life.
Been saying this for months: Trouble is a few goad them. I sadly regret I'm on record encouraging some of the bullshit. They make active threads disappear and we keep "enjoying" the faggot :ROFLMAO:'s of cognitive dissonance or stupidity:

That is all.

Yet another SVN "opinion" fed to him and us by a talking head. Enjoyed the irony of the video tho. Groupthink and stupidity, I've seen that somewhere
