LaPlace is the home of Delta Lures and the Thunder Jig, among other artificial lures being made by two serious bass fishermen.
Fred King and Roy Laborde are churning out Thunder Jigs, which are similar to ChatterBaits, as quickly as they can in a home operation that includes hours of testing prototypes in a swimming pool. […]
Ask three fishermen what they like most about their radar units and you might well get three different answers.
