Lakeland tackle?

[fiskyknut]

Frenzy,
If these are a brand of snelled spinners, I think the Amoco in warroad {Riverside} has some. I'm not sure but I think they're made up around us somewhere. I know I have seen some pretied/packaged spinners with this name somewhere around the Roseau/Warroad/Baudette area.

Is this what you are even talking about?

Are you thinking Northland? I think Lakeland is something like Jann's Netcraft, they sell supplies in bulk and I was looking to get some spinner material.

I'm about certain I've seen a packaged snelled spinner by that brand name {Lakeland} somewhere. Think I have some with a weird thin Prescott kinda blades on them, and they work great. What kinda goodies do you need?

[AaronM]

A little of everything. I need the Prescot, Indiana, Colorado, and French blades. Maybe some beads too. It would be nice to get these in bulk, like 500 a pack instead of the 10 & 25 you get at Cabela's. Thats why I'm trying to hunt down Lakeland.

I hear ya, you gotta snell up your own.... better and cheaper! If you find any of the spinner type I mentioned let me know please as I have'nt ran across those in bulk anywhere. They are cupped on the end, ride on clevis, and are more Indiana looking than CO in shape.

Find me some!!!

Are you looking for something like the Presto blades?

[fiskyknut]

Not sure what they are??? I did a search and found the site you are looking for. Try "tackle components" on a Yahoo search, it is the 7th one down the list. What is a Presto blade look like? That Worthco place has a lot of styles of blades also. I'm due soon for some stock up myself.... Tough finding bulk stuff up around here. I have ordered fron Jann's on occasion with good satisfaction. I pretty much tye everything I fish with and the only pretieds I buy are specialty type blades, these I then tear apart just for the blade so I can retie to my liking!

Fisky, the Lakelands you are talking about are the ones that were made in Williams I think. I used to use them all the time when I was up on LOW. I haven't found them since.

I seem to remember some type of tackle in the past that was from a *Lakeland* tackle company. This is not to the best of my knowledge(which is pretty educated in this direct situation) the Lakeland that you are looking for.

The Lakeland you are referring to is a company that deals with tackle retailers on a wholesale level. They do not deal with the general public(retail).

Cabela's used to carry larger quantities in alot of their components, you might have to reffer to a catalog. Stamina has an incredible selection of components and a very good online catalog. They are located in the twin cities area where orders can be immediately picked up, or they ship them to you in a very timely manor in my experiences with them. Use a search engine and type in Stamina Fishing tackle. I think the actual address is stamina inc dot com or something like that.

Ding! I knew it rang a bell Scott. I took a peek at that Lakeland site Frenzy was looking for and by golly that blade style is there and it is indeed a "Presto" style! Thanks Frenzy! I will have to order these as I'm very low. A touch of powder paint on a gold one is one of my favorites for sure. Don't tell anyone though!

This made my rainy day!

[AaronM]

Can anyone tell me where I could find the site for Lakeland tackle? Im not sure if the exact name is Lakeland, but Its close to that. I need this ASAP so thanks much for any replies and happy fishing.

Lakeland is a manufacturer and metal plater of lure components out of Isle, MN.

They sell wholesale.

Spinner blades are one of their specialties. I believe they also do custome orders for Novelty spinners or branded spinner blades as well.

Just look up Lakeland in Isle, MN and you'll have located them.
