SRI to become fishhardlivelong.com
Ditching the tackle end and becoming fishhardlivelong.com 5/1 or as soon as all the tackle is gone. I've been working the inventory down for a while now.
I'm going to concentrate on publishing and the clothing/decal line. I'd like to sell tees and decals to more shops, but as a tackle vendor I'm rightly viewed as a competitor and that is a problem.
Thanks to all for your support over the years.

Good Luck Joe- The experts say you are supposed to concentrate on your core business. There are many possibilities for growth.
Sorry I did not make it to the shows you were at this spring. Rob

Thanks - Some deals on the remaining tackle...it's going to go incrementally over the month. Special Deals - I've got some old-style un-rigged Surf Hogs that I found when cleaning up from the flood. |

No, I have been thinking of trying it, but it's alot of money to invest just to try it.
I like to wade out as far as I can and find a nice rock |

Good luck with the new venture, Joe - you've got all the skills to make it happen
I may be over on the mainland in the next week or so and need to pick up a few SRI items while they're still left
I'll give you a call and hit the drive-thru while I'm over your way

JOE?
I have a Suggestion.......
Keep the saying (IE logo) SMALL and Classy
on hat's and T's (black) gray) slate blue )
not like Bass PRO or Cabelas that can be seen a mile off
and your sales will be better than having it HUGE
thats just my opinion of course
but, i won't buy anything that makes me LOOK like
i am being PAID to advertise for them.

Thanks all. Rob, If I go I'll need a Gilly, so you can come.
Raven, I agree with your design suggestion. I could expand upon it but, there's no upside to doing that from a competitive standpoint.
