That sucks. I already thought they were a bit pricy for what they are.

Never bought Yo-Zuris much anyway... felt all along the price was way over their value vs. other plugs/ options!
And I say that at the same time I say that Habs, Tattoo, Pt. Jude, Bernzy, #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&, RI Popper, Lifishinvt, & the smaller customs are definitely worth their price! Give me enough quality & workmanship & uniqueness & consistent action, and I'll be willing to pay "high" prices! YoZuri going MORE expensive will only help the great U.S. brands named above to sell more! Good news to me!  |

Karl,
What are you using the back half for, needle?

Pfft...High priced anything. 
Sheeeet you can carve your own, you know. 
Melt down a few milk jugs from Cumberland Farms and whittle out a Mag Darter or two while your watchin' TV.
Don't forget to prep the cold frame and move it to your house's southern exposure so you can start some cabbage and carrots - it's almost time. Nothin like fresh, brazed cabbage and carrot casserole on those cold mornings before going out subsistence fishing. |

Hmmm. I still like them.
Well I use a load of them but 99% from a boat. I think I keep one in my big surf bag. They work great on bones, albies, king Macs and small tuna out my way. They are a very well made consistant lure, come stock with good hooks, IMO perhaps one of the best plastics going take a real beating and keep working even when they are stripped bare. I bet if you polled the boats out at the hooter most would have yo-zuri attached.
I will whine about the price but still buy them. Perhaps look for alternatives. They have their place on board my boat. Will not effect my surfcasting much though...that is 85% wood anyway.
Somehow I don't think a boycott will effect their bottom line, they are big in the freshwater buisness as well. yo-zuri is here to stay.
