I know this may be old news to some of you but I just discovered a few weeks ago that my home town favorite bait manufacture of soft plastics Bobby Garland and Gene Larew have been purchased by the Pradco Outdoor conglomerate located in Fort Smith, AR. I'm going to miss going out and taking the tour of the facility, but most of all I'll miss looking at the package and seeing made in USA Tulsa, OK. I seen a package a few months ago that said made in China and I thought it was just a knock off, but now I know it was the real deal. I always stayed true to the Bobby Garland brand but now I'll be searching for a different brand that is still made 100% here in the USA; so if any of you all have suggestions let me know.


Guess I'll round up a few of the old packages and save them for some future memorabilia,
