Roman Made's Trick to Get Our Enthusiast Meter Moving
Introduction: Going Native and fishing the hot bite is great in theory, but when you're a TackleTour editor, it's a challenging proposition. The amount of gear that piles up with each passing week can be quite daunting and the responsibility we bear to write about these products is real. Like with anything, too much of a good thing can dull your sense of excitement and enthusiasm. There used to be several key aspects of a product that would get that enthusiast meter boiling like hand made or even better, hand carved, wooden baits; naturally, high quality products from Japan; and with our headquarters in California, how can we resist the big bait craze?
Nice article Cal! One of my favorite swimbaits. Very upsetting if your rumored info is true about RM virtually pulling out of the States and favoring the JDM market with available stock. Did your source happen to give you a timeline when it might be put into affect? and how it would be applied (entire product line or select products perhaps?)? I know I'm asking for more than you were probably given but it still begs the question of "how" and "when". Thanks in advance.
