Super User eyedabassman Posted June 13, 2014 Super User Posted June 13, 2014 NetBait has been sold! I have been with them for along time and I am sad not to be working for Kent and his family. But it is a new and fresh start to work with the new owner! I have talked to him a few times and I am looking forward to working with him for along time.He will have a better web site and he will be a big player in the retail market. He seems like a real smart guy who knows what he is doing! I will miss Kent and he has been so great to me and I wish him and his family the best! Dan PS Thanks again For Everything Kent! Quote
bassh8er Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Hopefully everything works out and they maintain their same quality; best jig trailer on the market as far as performance and price goes, in my opinion. Good luck! 3 Quote
MemphisFF Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Agree I just picked up some baby paca Craws love the colors and prices.. I hope they still stay around the same prices and quality Quote
Frenchman83 Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 I share the same sentiment as others. Cannot beat Netbait for quality and price. Good luck to all in the future. Quote
Mccallister25 Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 A netbait craw landed me my first jig fish. If I run out of Rage Tail, its a paca chunk for me. Awesome quality for the price point. Quote
Super User K_Mac Posted June 13, 2014 Super User Posted June 13, 2014 Like the others, I wish you and the new owners well. I am a long time user and fan. Good luck. Quote
TrippyJai Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 I hope they don't mess with the baits. I love my Paca Chunks. Quote
Super User ChrisD46 Posted June 13, 2014 Super User Posted June 13, 2014 Great soft plastics plus A+ scent ... T-Macs , Paca Chunks are a staple in my tacklebox ...Don't mess with the success !! 1 Quote
slimshad Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Guess I will go buy 20 bags of the colors I like this weekend. Better website and marketing means higher prices in my opinion. Hope not tho. 1 Quote
playmaker47 Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Paca Craws and Baby Paca Craws in okochobee craw and bama bug are by far my best producing plastics this year so far! Please tell me they aren't changing those! Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted June 14, 2014 Author Super User Posted June 14, 2014 I don't think the new owner will change anything on the baits or price. He told me that he will market more and better which could mean more price? I hope not, I just think you will see the Netbait brand in more stores and more big chain stores! 1 Quote

WVbassin87 Posted June 14, 2014 Posted June 14, 2014 This is my first year throwing plastics. baby paca craws in green pumpkin have landed me several nice smallies. i agree with the others, as long as price stays reasonable, they have my support. Quote
Big Swimbait Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 If he puts more into advertising then unfortunately the prices will go up. Only if sales do not increase - let's hope they do so the pricing stays the same. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted June 15, 2014 Super User Posted June 15, 2014 Love their lures I hope everything stays the same. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted June 15, 2014 Global Moderator Posted June 15, 2014 I've gone almost completely away from Zoom Trick Worms because the prices on the Tmacs are so much better and I like the flat nose for putting on a shakyhead a lot better. Hopefully their prices and baits don't change. 2 Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted June 16, 2014 Global Moderator Posted June 16, 2014 The only upside I can see to a change is the possibility of all remaining baits being discontinued at a big discount, but I'd rather keep paying what I am and the baits stay the same. Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted June 16, 2014 Super User Posted June 16, 2014 TMAC worms have totally replaced all othe trick worms in my bags. I'll buy "em even if the price goes up, as long as the plastic formula and colors remain the same. Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted June 16, 2014 Author Super User Posted June 16, 2014 I don't think they will be discounted at all.And I know they will not play with the formula at all !The new owner is a smart guy and he knows that! I do know he is going to change the pro staff program and what they get free! The new owner knows a good thing when he see's it.And I am sure it was not a cheap buy for him so I think everything is going to be fine! Quote
CTGalloway21 Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 so who is the new owner. I loved the fact that NetBait was an Alabama company. Wonder if they will move out of state or what. Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted June 16, 2014 Author Super User Posted June 16, 2014 so who is the new owner. I loved the fact that NetBait was an Alabama company. Wonder if they will move out of state or what. I am not sure,he sounds like a southern boy. His name is Justin and that is all I know at this time. I am do to call him here real soon and I will get more info! Quote
HomersTomaco Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 It was sold like 6 months ago... And I thought Ken was still involved and ran or owned the manufacturing. I don't think much will change. Quote
CTGalloway21 Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 I remember something on facebook a while back about a new website. You might be right Quote
Creekcrappie Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Really hope they don't change the baits in any way. Pretty good baits IMO. Quote
