Well guys I have to admit, I'm not flattered by SK's gesture. This particular pattern is the first bluegill I created after I got the hang of painting. Its the first of my original designs that I really was proud of and I have sold a bunch of them. This was after about 8 months of trial and error trying to teach myself to paint. A SK pro was given a some of them as a gift from a third party. Evidently he liked them. I just went to academy and I have to admit, it was very upsetting to see an exact copy of something I created with someone else's name on it. And when I say exact, they didnt leave anything out. It's always been a dream to see my stuff in a big store, just not with someone else taking the credit. for it. I guess I am naive or this wouldnt be bothering me.

Mr. Gandy, we Tffer's should slap an * on this 1.5 and refer it as the "Gandy Gill"! I agree with you totally.

Wow I would like to know who that SK pro staffer is. A real piece of you know what if you know what I mean. Especially knowing it was someone else's custom paint job.

Wow, is it not possible to copyright designs? It's a shame they flat ripped off your design without any compensation or recognition. I don't think I could let that go very easily.

I'm sure they can afford better lawyers.

Similar things have happened in the past to my families old lure company, a bunch of firsts were done by us, and copied by everyone.



Small hobby businesses just can't compete legally with the big boys.
