Thanks Guys!
I look forward to the opportunity of offering some great products!
A 5" version of the Slammer will be in the works as well as a popper mouth version that will do very well!

Mike - I was told that some of the early run plugs were not manufactured / setup as optimal as could be and didn't work as well as they could have. As production / testing went on, they were tweaked and improved and the action improved. I've spoken with a few people that use them and like them a lot. Supposedly (and I have yet to try this myself - too many plugs too little time) a side arm cast will benefit the surfcaster and trolling behind a boat works the plug real well.
The Cat IS out of the bag  - Don - BEST OF LUCK TO YA!!!

Thanks alot guys!...
JohnR is correct!...
There were some "bugs"... that were there in the beginning, and those have been worked out on the most part...
Due to the unique profile that the Slammer offers in the water, sidearm casting will increase the overall distance when fishing the Slammer in the surf.
However ...
there will be an even more castable version of this lure in the future that will specifically have the surfcaster in mind.
And although the Slammer catches very well in the surf...
It has been a proven producer that has become more popular with boaters as a trolling lure.
Tuna and other gamefish applications will also be included as an integral part of the future product line as the Slammer has done very well with the offshore game fishermen who have beefed up the hardware...
I'm also looking at a smaller popper version for the future that will do very well on the surface...
For a lipless swimmer, the Slammer has a very nice double action to it!...
The patented body design will be utilized more effectively in the future as to cover a much broader range of applications...
And yes... this will include even more castability!...
These modifications will take some time and $$ but are in the works!!!
I look forward to your feedback in the future as the company continues to grow and evolve!
Bliz

Don....to help along with your new "baby".....Allow me to be the first to offer. I would like to help you advertise.
I'd like to showcase the "Gag's" production line. Could you please send me 2 of each and every lure Gag's has produced...mambo's, slammers, poppers....etc, etc,....I figure that by showing these off, I will help you will acquire more business. I promise to test drive each and every plug while I'm at it.
Thank you, I'll be awaiting my packages.
