Rapala

I got, I still have a bunch of fishing lures for sale.

If anybody's interested in buying some fishing lures, they're brand new in the packages, mostly Rapala brand lures.

I'm asking $5 apiece, or the more you buy, the better the deal I give you.

I got everything from small size up to musky baits.

Well, Jack Scogg sold Beretta.

He sold Rapala.

He sold a bunch of other.

He's independent.

And I'm covering – so I'm an independent sales rep, Anderson Needham Sales.

We had Fenwick.

We had Rapala.

And we're the – we're our two main tackle lines.

Yeah, I'm go- I got a little down time.

I'm go, uh, my buddies at Rapala said that they'd come get me.

Oh, yeah.

And be fishing.

And no, you are not on the wrong podcast.

We are actually looking at a stock chart for Rapala VMC, which is traded on the Helsinki market in Europe.

And a very interesting article that caught our attention.

We checked it out the other day.

Yeah, so all you guys out there clamoring to get your hands on the CEO and stocking up on Mooch Minnows for the winter, you are definitely part of this.

And you can buy stocks on the European market as a United States citizen.

So if you want to get in on some Rapala VMC action, this is the ticker as of today, August 18th, looks like, at 5.

I guess that's 156 euros.

And I go all the way back, I guess, one of the first times I ever heard about Duck Creek.

I was early high school, but I had a, I think it was a science teacher who was quite a freshman, and he'd gone over to Mingo's Bass Fishing, throwing a great old big nine-inch Rapala, and he brought it back and showed it to us.

It was a broken half, and he said, you break your favorite lure? He said, no, I had a bass break that.

He got it sideways in his mouth and broke it.

And like my uncle had one, I don't know how he had one.

He was a pretty traditional, like Rapala, you know, crankbait guy, whatever.

And he had, yeah, it's a big bait.

Like it's, it's, you know, all of at least 10 inches, maybe 12, uh, And it's a wake bait jointed with like a paddle tail, boot tail, swim bait, like in the back of it.

Talked to, what's his name, Carl Jocumson.

And that new Rapala Strata bait's coming out that he worked on.

That's going to be money.

Is that the Australian guy? Yeah.

They got some new baits coming out.

They're going to be absolute crushers.

Really? And Rapala, I say that wrong.

I said it right one of those times, but Rapala, they've got a lot of new stuff coming out.
