I love the idea of "making it big" and would love to get into the industry but I'm not sure how much money is in it vs time away from the family. at 1000 dollars it would take 1000 packs of baits at a dollar profit just to pay for it. plus I would have to be able to sale the baits once I get them made. If every tackle store bought 200 packs of lures at a dollar profit per pack it would take 100 tackle stores or 20,000 to be worth it for me and I'm not sure you can make a dollar per pack profit. I fight with the dream vs reality all the time but you never know untill you try. Thats why I look up to Snake as much as I do. He rolled the dice and I hope he strikes it big!
