I in no way was trying to stir the pot for any company, just trying to get some facts. Sorry for posting.

Re: hard bluegill swimbait?
All of my current soft plastic baits are made in my shop rigfht here in the USA. Now my Woody was a little side project that was manufactured for me by another company. Reaction Strike did not manufacture the baits. However they were manufactured in the same factory that is used by some of the other brands. Note that is why I sold them at a discounted price. If I make them they cost more. I am working on some hard baits now. Non wood to assure consistancy. They will be impresiveand they will be made by me and my employees!
As for all the knock offs.
Well, If i fish Senkos, I buy Senkos!! I refuse to use a copy.
(I realy dont use them very often though)

Reaction Strike has their baits built in the same factory as Black Dog Baits and, as Matt mentioned above, Mattlure's first run Woody Lures. Reaction Strike is not an OEM but simply shares the OEM factory.

Re: hard bluegill swimbait?
I pretty much known ahead of time I was going to open a can o worms with this one. I tell it like it is from a consumer perspective. I use Black dog baits and love them and they work effectively for me and when I see something similar I'm going to knock it, but I do honestly believe that the small business is always on the losing end when other companies replicate baits and sell them for cheaper even if they are manufactured by the same facility.
