Swing by the American Tackle booth at ICRBE and see the JigSkinz demonstration and try it for yourself. JigSkinz are a super easy to use shrinkable skin that makes your lures like new again. You can also easily match the bait fish in a particular area. We have a special skin for rods that we will be releasing at ICRBE.....

Thank you Randy..... He is correct, American Tackle Ring Lock guides are are patented design for the ultimate in performance and durability. They incorporate a system of pressure fit, enlarged glue reservoir and increased contact area around the ceramic ring to dramatically reduce ring failure.

Check out the Bushido DS69/4-10 ...... you do not have to spend a lot to get a lot, and you can trim it down. I fished the St Clair River in Michigan a ton and this blank dominates for jigging! As far as the handle and guides.... is this a spinning or casting set up? (blank is good for both btw)

Good morning Jon..... sorry for the delay but the storm had us shut down. Many of us at AT spend time in your area and have some of the most used blanks in all of Florida. 1. Snook/Redfish artificial baits - topwater plugs, weighted plastics - Bushido MB73/8-15 or MB10-20 2. Snook/Redfish - live bait - free line and popping cork - Bushido CB72/8-15 or CB72/10-20 3. Tarpon - live bait

American Tackle will be closing early today 10/6/16 and will be closed Friday 10/7/16 due to Hurricane Matthew. This could possibly be one of the most devastating storms to hit Florida. We hope to re-open on Monday 10/10/16. This of course depends on the damage sustained. If you are also in the path of the storm, please be careful. Many Blessings..... American Tackle Co.

That being said, I have personally tested and have worked with experts in the surf, carp and big game rod markets to come up with a starting range. Start with these measurements, and static test the runni
