Here at the shop the wife and I just returned from a 2 day buyer show. W.L.Baumler puts on a great show held at Saw Mill Creek resort. I like the fact they are a local distributor right here in Lorain Ohio. Its always nice to get a small jump on anglers looking for the newest products to hit the market. I will take the opportunity to tell you about a few really cool new products. Pictured above is a sample of Koppers Live Target Bait Balls. All I can say is WOW! Im not sure Ill ever catch a fish on one but this whole line is really awesome looking. They come in a variety of sizes,shapes and even a wide range of bait fish choices. On looks alone I have to try them. Reef Runner has also brought a new bait to market called the Skinny Stick. Its a 4 1/2 body length and a unique flat sided, slender shape. It can be trolled from .5 to 3.5 and reach depths of 21 to 24 feet. This bait will for sure be a hit on those spring Western basin walleye. This bait offers another bonus as all components, including the hooks are designed, tested, and made right here in the USA. Look for more updates and new products in days to come.
