With shops opening back up I went and re-stocked Gregory's Resort on the south end of Shelbyville. Stop in and tell Rich hello.
Then on my way back I stopped at Howies on Rt. 32 south of Sullivan and re-stocked Jay. Then at Chip's Marine also on Rt. 32 south of Sullivan at the Bo-Woods entrance. He is now re-stocked as well.
I have re-stocked Sharpe Outdoors on Mound Rd. in Decatur several times. Glad you guys are using our products.
I have sold about 12,000 jigs in the last month. Lots of work since I hand paint them three coats and hand pour all of them. But it is a nice little side income for me. I suggest we support all small business like ours or they will be gone. ... See MoreSee Less

We have added a new wholesale distributor to our product line. A new business trying to get off the ground amidst our current problems of Covid-19. They are called Sharpe Outdoors and located at 1920 E. Mound Rd. Decatur Ill. Lee and Jennifer are great people and I would hope you all will stop in and meet with them and pick up some of their fine plastics as well. They have a very good array of home made baits. In this world of box stores it is good to see that some Mom and Pop stores still exist.
We also stopped in and refilled Howies Lakeside one of our oldest clients. Located south of Sullivan Ill. ... See MoreSee Less

We are still in business. I know it has been awhile. We have two new colors for the Glow Bugs. We are trying to attract walleye fishermen by creating darker colors but the crappie guys are tearing up the big fish with all these Glow Bugs. They all glow except the black.
I have endured five surgeries in the last three years. Three on my Rotator, one on my foot and one on my hand. Getting old sucks as my Dr. says I am a poster child for Orthopedic surgeons.
I will be returning to guiding on a very limited basis next spring. Something to keep me occupied in my retirement years while I wait on my wife to get old enough to retire as well. I will keep in touch but give our jigs a try they are truly unique and all handmade. ... See MoreSee Less

We went all out for our latest jig. First we used a much larger number one hook for multi-species. Then we put in raised eyes,multi-colored jig heads and premium GLOW material to make the best Walleye/Smallmouth/Crappie lure you will ever use.
The walleye guys can cast this tipped with a minnow to stumps and rocks.
The Smallmouth guys can vertical fish this for those suspended fish. The head design was specially cut to show up on your Electronics with an almost flat top for better reflection.
The Crappie guys have been asking for a GLOW jig with a larger hook to open water troll with. Weather it is Spiderrigging, Longlining or Sidepulling.
No expense was spared in making the best quality jig we have ever came out with. You can go to the store on our website at www.LakeShelbyvilleGuide.com. Very soon we will have them in our normal retail stores. ... See MoreSee Less

Sent some of our Deep Ledge Jig Baby Bugs down to Brad Whitehead to try on Pick Wick. He loves our 1/4oz. to fish those deep tree tops. These Baby Bugs just never wear out. Catch 50 fish off just one lure, leave it on for days. The two strands of tensile hanging off the tail just drive big fish nuts.
Stop by our booth to see the entire line of Deep Ledge Jig products at the upcoming Collinsville Let's Go Fishing Show. January 4,5,6. ... See MoreSee Less
