Question Jigs, Rigs, and Stuff.

Does anyone know what happened to these guys? Just went to their site to place an order and I got a message saying that the site name does not exist, not sure if they got a new address or what It's a great place for bucktails and tins, I'd be bummed out if they went out of business. If anyone knows what the deal is I'd be grateful to hear. Thanks.

Found the same thing. Been getting bucktails from them for a number of years. Very good work.
I sent an email to the last address I had for the owner, will let you know if I hear anything.

I'd rather be fishing!

No reply as of yet, but the email did not get kicked back to me. I guess we will wait and see.

Another member sent me a PM and told me that they sell on ebay under the name bucktail-1, I checked it out and it looks to be the same guys. Perhaps they forgot to renew the domain name for their site and it's down temporarily.

Thanks plankton. I'll check it out. Hope I can still get some of the custom stuff I got last year.

Just to follow up, received this today:
"I have been out of town since last thursday I changed servers and was promised the site would be up and running Friday and I am on the phone with go daddy .com right now. ( on hold of course)
trying to find out what the problem is.
Try again to night Sorry about this. And you can bet I am no happier then you.

Now they tell me bu end of business today."

That is good news since they do ship quickly.

I'd rather be fishing!

The other jigs I am going to get a bunch of are the beer barrel jigs and the banana jigs. Used the banana jigs on the northside in the grass and they stay nice and clean. And I think the beer barrel jigs would be great for the sandy areas.

I like the look of the lightweight jigs as well, seems like it would be nice to have a large presentation in a jig that only weighs around an ounce, could be money in the surf!

I got a bunch of his beer barrel jigs and liked them so much I bought the mold. They are rear weighted and are good for fishing from the beach.

Reply coming in around 2013 or so...

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

I'm in almost a month delay with these guys right now for shad jig heads after the part of the 1st order was done incorrect. It's been a runaround of excuse. Like Salty said, Ethics. Quote of the year today from George as he talks to me while he is loading his truck for RISAA, "You don't need em right now, do you?"
