Super User Long Mike Posted February 2, 2007 Super User Posted February 2, 2007 I went to the Tulsa Boat, Sport & Travel Show today and was very disapointed. Almost 500,000 sq. ft. of exhibit space, and 495,000 was taken up by boats and campers. I guess that's OK if those are the items you are shopping for, but I wasn't. What I was hoping to find was a fairly large number of small booths populated by Mom & Pop companies who were hoping to tout their wares and expand their market. I found one. Though I have not fished them, they offer a number of what I would consider very high quality plastics at VERY reasonable prices. Plus, they offer a shakey head lure that I have never seen before. It has two hooks. One to hold the worm and the other to hold the fish when it latches on. I want to stress that I have no affiliation with this company whatsoever. I never heard of this compny until this afternoon, but I think their website is worth a visit - if nothing else for shakey head. www.aandmbaits.com Quote

Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted February 2, 2007 Super User Posted February 2, 2007 Some of the website design and the names of baits are the same ones you see on *.com Even the "Dumb Bass" thing at the top is on the other site too. I dont know if there is an affiliation between the two, but if there isn't.....something isn't right. Wayne Quote
Super User 5bass Posted February 3, 2007 Super User Posted February 3, 2007 If I'm not mistaken,a&m baits is owned by the father of the guy that owns ***. LBH? Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted February 3, 2007 Author Super User Posted February 3, 2007 A AND M BAITS is owned by Annette and Monty Bolinger. They are located in Eufaula, OK. Quote
-Drums- Posted February 3, 2007 Posted February 3, 2007 And looking at the *** site, it's owned by Brent & Amy Bollinger. Same family name. Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted February 3, 2007 Author Super User Posted February 3, 2007 I have to agree with you guys. It has to be the same family. Thier logos are exactly the same and and you don't see the name Bollinger every day. Quote
Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted February 5, 2007 Super User Posted February 5, 2007 LBH confirmed that it is family....father and son own each one. Quote
SwampMan Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 And they sell basically the same lures you can buy from Barlow's. I wonder who makes all of that??? Quote
