887, Osprey Lures
Posted by , Mon Mar-04-02 06:27 PM
Does anybody have a source to get Osprey lures at a bulk discounted rate? Besides Umaxco ?? I fish about 5 days a week and belive it or not neither Umaxco or Steve @ Osprey will help me out or return my emails. I have been greatly supported over the years by Stocker, Basstrix, Anglers choice, Maxima, Shimano, Phenix, and many other companies and i cant afford to pay retail when i go through 20-30 swimbaits a month sometimes. I am giving it one more shot and then i will give up!

Dude, how come you go through that many ospreys? Do you re rig em? Instead of buying a bunch of stock ospreys I'd suggest either rerigging them yourself, or buying half the amount of pro-rigged baits from bass world west. Keep in mind that Osprey isn't a huge company like shimano or maxima, so buying things in bulk probably isn't going to work out. It's basically Steve making baits and selling them to dealers. There's no Osprey warehouse or Osprey factory where there's boxes and boxes of Ospreys lying around. Try re-rigging a couple and see how long they last.

Try contacting Cher Vella (cv@umaxco.com) directly. She's a great person and I'm sure she will be able to help.
