bmadd Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Didn't Tru-Tungsten merge with that hook company, Youvella?? I could be wrong about that, but maybe the closing down of TT stems from that. I believe that TT and Youvella are both owned by the same company. http://fishharderco.com/ Quote
Infidel. Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I would be completely bummed if they went under but I wouldn't have been surprised being that a couple of years ago it seemed like they sponsored everyone and their mothers. Maybe it just seemed that way. See how that war stuff hurts everyone- Its time to stop the war.PERIOD I originally posted a response to this but thought it would be better to delete it. Seemed like it would get a little too political to me. Quote
TrippyJai Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 their swimbaits, I have different view on that. Which ones do you own and use? Review please. I live not as far North as you and I am wondering how they work with the Northern Strain of LMB I can't put out a review because I bought 2 late in the season last year. I took them out to a pond which I usually go to for testing new lures and I managed to catch a couple bass. They catch fish, but I'm still not sure how to use them really. All the lakes up in Ontario have a lot of pike so I hope I don't lose one before catching any LMB. Quote
Super User flechero Posted February 26, 2009 Super User Posted February 26, 2009 Tungsten is about $52.00 a kilo-.The reason it is so high is the US Govt. is actually buying it up(supply and demand theory) They use it for armor piercing artillery. Since the war ,the demand surpasses the supply thus driving up the price. The machines or presses they use are probably near the $60,000 range each for making the heads-jigs -weights ect. See how that war stuff hurts everyone- Its time to stop the war.PERIOD And to think, all along, I thought the loss was measured in Soldiers, injured and killed. I hope you didn't mean it this way but you sound as if the tragedy of war is the inconvenience on your wallet. :-/ Quote

From what I know, paddle tail swimbaits are really popular up here. I hear people talking about them everywhere I go. I haven't heard much about hard swimbaits yet. We'll see what happens when the season is around. Quote

You might want to give a heavy fluoro leader a shot. Quote
