To be honest Brian, I don't know. Mickey has not been supplying us with any product at all right now. He is concentrating on his Japan market, and rumor has it that his new creation won't be out in the U.S. until the Bass-A-Thon at Anglers. Some people are really concerned about what new products will debut at which show. For me, I really don't care. If some manufacturers want to hold their new product until the "bigger" Bass-A-Thon show rather than having them at our Bass Blast, that's their decision. I think it is a mistake, because the hard-core anglers that will spend up to $30 for a bait will be at each show. I also think that seminar speakers like Aaron Martens will be able to discuss and promote big baits a hell of a lot better than someone like Rick Clunn.
The Whitmer-Rago Trout will definetly be a big seller, and it would be great to see two new big baits tested head to head in the casting pond, but it probably won't happen despite numerous talks with Mickey.

P.S.- The Whitmer-Rago bait won't be at the Bass-A-Thon, the manufacturers decision, not ours.
