I heard some rumors that Lucky Craft may be in danger of shutting down because of tax issues. Can anyone confirm this, or heard anything else?

I haven't heard anything about this. Doesn't make it not true, but it's news to me.

I've been noticing a lot of the lures are out of stock on many sites. Terrible news

Been looking for Flashminnow 95 MR’s for a month now, can’t find any.

Which Lucky Craft? The main in Japan or Lucky Craft U.S.A.?

Say it ain't so.

Following...

There is a lot of LC Japan presence on Facebook lately though.

This news is from more than 5 years ago. Lucky Craft USA has resolved their tax issues and isn't going anywhere.

Thanks Cal

If that is the case, why are so many stores not getting anything from them to stock their shelves?
I've talked to five retailers and hear the same story...

This is certainly puzzling, and is something I have found as well. Huge fan of the pointers. Unbreakable and work on a vast range of species. Saw a 110 cm barramundi landed on a 78 DD pointer.

Direct from Lucky Craft USA:

"We are totally fine, we have been preparing many items, so some demand for old model can’t be satisfied enough."

Even TW can't keep some of their products in stock. It sure is a strange way to run a company. Their Pointers are one of their better selling products, what gives if they can't keep up with the demand? I've been waiting two months...

Sadly they were discontinued.
