    Default Cost of tying materials


    They are going through the roof. I'm fairly well stocked on almost everything but every now and then there comes a time when I'm out of something I need to fill an order. I needed a light gray bucktail and a red bucktail for an order so ran over to Feathercraft to pick them up. I was shocked when I saw the price for a bucktail is now 11.99, last year it was 6.99. With tax two bucktail was over $26. Had to inform customer the price for his jigs were going up and he cut 20 jigs off his order. Reflecting back on the good ol days when a kip tail or bucktail for under $2. Being a senior citizen I'm really missing the good ol days now. Only way to feel better is to go fishing, hope they cooperate.

    Everything is getting more expensive. Like you I'm glad I'm stocked pretty good. With any luck the prices go back down some.

    Prices for most things are outrageous lately. $27 for 3 bags of dog treats. They are worth it, but they eat better than I do

    I just ordered 6 13/0 catfish hooks for a buddy and they were $12.50 per hook.certainly ridiculous. And they charge me shipping.

    I grew up on butter and sugar sandwiches and government bologna , peanut butter, and cheese. I will never complain about how much fishing supplies cost.
