Can everyone post names of either independently owned USA bait companies (not owned by a larger conglomerate or holdings company) that make their baits overseas or independent USA bait companies that do their manufacturing here in the states. Name the company, and whether their baits are made here or overseas. Thanks in advance

We are too regulated and labor costs are too high to make it profitable for the smaller bait makers. Even if some dude is pouring his own jigs, unless he is using Eagle Claw hooks, most others are not made in the USA. So technically a jig made with an Mustad, Owner or Gamakatsu hook would not be made in the USA. True Turn of course is made in Texas! "Often imitated, never duplicated"
