Japanese Fishing Supplies
Several fishing supplies manufacturers and distributors source product from Japan, such as Jackall Lures, and they have provided an update about their production and exporting in light of the recent earthquake and tsunami in that country.
Ty Ono at Jackall said the good news is that no one at the company was directly affected by the disaster and their facility was not damaged. They expect very little backlog or downtime as a result, but they do anticipate delays in exporting and importing materials to make baits. This is due to the fact that so many supplies and building materials will be coming into the ports to rebuild and clean the hard hit areas, so there will likely be prioritizing of what comes and goes. Jackall has a good supply of product already in the US in their California warehouse, so they don't anticipate it will affect US anglers as much.
