  1. I have a 6 year old website that sells fishing reels internationally. The vast majority of the reels are sold to fishermen in Australia and New Zealand. I purchased this site a few months ago as an addition to my fishing lure manufacturing business. I have a full time job and thought I could run them both; however, I now know that is not possible. The website made a gross profit of $178,330 in 2011 (I can verify 2009, 2010 & 2011 income with IRS returns). The site mainly sells Shimano reels but there is plenty of room to increase sells with the addition of other manufactured reels. We currently have two distributors for the reels (really anything fishing). Unless there is a really good sale, we sell the reels cheaper than Gander Mountain, Cabelas, Bass Pro and Walmart. The sell will also come with approx. $2K in reels and fishing line. I had a professional logo created for the website. Since the reels are shipped internationally, you will need to stock inventory. We do have a 60 day net with one of the distributors. Also, you may qualify for $50K in financing through the SBA since this is an export business. We would be willing to offer some owner financing for a continued percentage of ownership. This is a legitimate business. Unfortunately, we do not have the time to continue to run the site. If you do not have the financial ability to purchase the business and inventory, please do not respond.
  2. I'm looking to buy fishing manufacturing, resell or websites. If it's a lure manufacturing business, great; if it's a website selling hooks, interested in that too. Send me what you have. Send all to me at fishingproductsfl at yahoo dot com.
  3. I currently have a fishing lure manufacturing business and would like to grow by acquire other established businesses. In particular, ice lures, reels and associated products. However, will consider any lure or associated business. No dreamers please. I'm not interested in just left over parts and pieces. This must be a viable business or product. Contact me through here or at fishingproductsfl@yahoo.com. Thanks, Adam
  4. Cheapest price and lowest shipping is through Uline.com.
  5. Thanks toadfrog, I'll follow-up on it. Thank you very much!
  6. Hello All, I'm looking to expand my presence in the fishing industry and I'm looking for established fishing lure businesses/related product lines to purchase. The lures most be either 1) unique to the market or 2) have an established base. If you have a business for sale, feel free to contact me @ fishingproductsfl@yahoo.com. Thanks, Adam
  7. There's no way that you could afford to do this (correctly) yourself. It would be a massive investment in equipment. This is best left for industrial companies. I have a few companies that I've discussed producing some tungsten jig heads for me. They currently manufacture weights and they can (potentially) manufacture your weights as well (at least they were willing to manufacture my jig heads). One thing you need to know about tungsten, compared to lead, the molds are very expensive ($2K+). Send me a PM if you want to discuss some more.
