Post by Jim Scarlett »

Hey guys and gals, any input on the new Japanese bass fishing products? I've seen some awesome mastery in quality on some of them.

So Kevin, do you know a rep for those products? I have some good busines buddies in Japan and if I need an insight they will bend over backwards if I want them too. By the way, someone dropped your name. Considering you and Ripdog together, I'm probably older than the two of you together, Ha. Well I guess we all get older. I'll be catching up to you in Texas, my mom and brother live there and I make a couple of trips every year, see you. Good luck if you plan on some tourneys there.

That wouldn't even cover my gas, tolls and precious time fee's to go buy him products.. But I am curious to know what products I am producing that he loves so much. I know it can't be the frog cause that sucker is still at the factory getting produced.

Kevin,

I would like to request a sponsorship from your company, I dont have a current resume, I have a reputation for having a heavy eye, broken scales, and never take pictures. The people throughout the industry know me by name.

Please send me for free your products, or I will call my business associates on you. I have just been awarded a inheritance of 1,000,000 dollars, however I can not access the monies here in America. Please send me baits and sponsorship monies in return I will give you half of my inheratince...

Thank you,
419 Eater Reginoal Sponsorship

Mr. Freabees..... I am Mr. Johnsons' West Coast Marketing Director for the soon explosion on the market of the HHH. (It is still at the factory Image )

I was wondering if by chance you were possibly the 1985 West Coast TeamTOC winner, West Coast Angler of the year 1984,Etc, etc.. joined the Team Skeeter, later joined Hydra Sports bass Boats and Team Mercury, sponsored by Precision Marine, had some top ten finishes in Redman when they were here, won big bass awards and first, second places in local clubs here in Sacramento area, joined WON and Anglers' Choice Pro-Ams on the Am side where you may have a first place at Oroville, a second at Clear Lake, and many top tens.

Are all of you trophies covering your entire den wall ?

Do pros usually get a check because of your catches, plus they learn a lot from you for shareing information??

Remember-- Selling a product takes carrisma and hard work and contacting the potential buyers. :wink:


Remember- You don't tickle the HHH and get off scott free........There is Familia involved in this project !

Let me know if you want them painted and epoxied. I do a lot of that for some of my buddies. I also make a lot of bills for rouges out of lexan so I may be able to help in that department if you ever need it.

I have a couple of rouges that will dive 20 feet. And they walk real well.
