Response to blog about the Hawg Seeker from Zebco

In response to the comment, I have held these in my magnificent reels in my hand. My wholesaler assures me that they are authorized for sale NOW. In fact my first shipment is on its way to my store today. So if you would like one of these reels before your friends, order from The Bait Barn.

We also carry Abu Garcia reels that at not authorized for sale by the Big outfitters. This is per the manufacturer, to be released ONLY to bait and tackle stores. Click Here I wish more companies would do this to give small business bait and tackle stores a fighting chance against the BIG BOYS. God Bless Abu Garcia!



I was at my wholesaler today and they showed me the new reel from Zebco, they only have 3 of each. (Spincast and Spinning)These have not been released to the big outfitters yet, so get them before your friends do. Only at The Bait Barn. These reels are really nice with an adjustable bite indicating sensor, bright led lights and loud alarm system. Never miss your catch again!This reel is an excellent gift for the deaf, blind or disabled fishermen.

*NEW* Zebco has created the ultimate catfishing tackle with our new Hawg Seeker series featuring Electronic Bite Alert® technology. Hawg Seeker is a completely new catfishing system in either spincast or spinning format that will revolutionize catfishing.

Pflueger has added us to their website, Purefishing.com soon as well

Today I was notified that Pflueger fishing has added us as a link to purchase products from. We have some Pflueger products available through our website and will be adding much more in the weeks to come. Soon PureFishing.com will be updating their database to include The Bait Barn as well. When the major fishing manufacturers list you as a reputable source for their products, that compliment does not come lightly and is greatly appreciated. I have talked personally with Purefishing.com representatives and they understand the importance of helping the small Mom & Pop shops of the world. Big corporations have sucked the life out bait shops all over the country, it's good to see big companies wanting to help small business again.
