Mac Daddy's: Move over Megabass! Are you ready for some bling on your string? Enter Mac Daddy’s Fishing Lure Company. Barely a year old, this little jewel of a company makes its home in Shell Beach, California and is the brain child of Mac Journagan. Their specialty? Hand-crafted flies and spoons constructed of precious metals and real gemstones! Prices range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars and the brilliance is undeniable. These lures are not for the faint of heart but nor are they simply for collector’s value. These are one hundred percent working and fishable lures. In fact, Mac and his team shared with us, several stories of fish catching success. Their slogan: “We put the bling on your string”.

Conclusion: A little lighter in the head, and much lighter in the wallet, we emerged from the 2006 San Francisco Fred Hall Fishing Tackle and Boat Show eager to hit the water with all our new gear and anxious to bring to you, all the news and information we’ve gathered.

We hoped you enjoyed our coverage of this year’s show as we certainly enjoyed walking the aisle ways, seeing the new products, purchasing much of it, and meeting all the fun, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic personalities that make these events possible.
