An Arkie tour

I was passing through the northern part of our state on my way back from hunting and had the opportunity to stop by Arkie lures headquarters and see them. Attachment 179783
Met up with Mitch and took a tour of the warehouse and met a bunch of the employees. They have a bunch of new products coming out this season and should serve the crappie fisherman well. They have teasers coming out in 26 colors Attachment 179784Attachment 179785
They have about every color of jig head ya want Attachment 179786.
They have all new crappie colored crankbaits thanks to Scottv Attachment 179787Attachment 179788

It was a great time to meet and see one of the crappie.com supporters and sponsors of the site. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Very impressive! And it looks like Arkie Jigs is going proactive and very progressive. Good job, Mitch! :ThumbsUp

That's a nice plant with happy employees, Looks like they are seriously in the bait business to stay. Thanks for showing ABH.

Wow! Very cool. What town is the HQ in NW AR? Looks like some good stuff! Hopefully Bates in Mayflower will pick up some of the Arkie tackle.

Arkie's gonna take over the crappie fishing business by storm. Mitch listens to crappie fishermen and produces products and colors that are proven fish catchers. Great tour JW, thanks for sharing.

I did.....Mitch is a hoot lol

Man a tour there would be very neat!

Attachment 180303 I will stay with Crappielogic Jigs & Gnats myself! Best made IMO and can make whatever you need. Shade tree shop just like its suppose to be! These crappie teasers originated in Mississippi to my knowledge and can be ordered via above member sponsor classifieds. Sorry ABH didn't mean to bash your thread bro. People need to know greater options!

Cooler full this wasn't meant to be a which is best made thread but an insight into the company. Everyone is entitled to an opinion. No hard feelings from me. On the other thread "fishing is hot" when asked about teasers I mentioned Donnie and meatheads products for options. Kinda like a ford and Chevy decision. Use what ya like as there are options out there. All good products imo. No one better than another just different colors or way they are made. They all catch fish.

If ya want to pitch your opinion on a product then make a thread and let people know what you think is "greater options" would be great. That's what makes this forum good is everyone can and should be able to show off stuff that works for them.

Roger that ABH!

Now that is cool! Looks like some good products coming out.
