I would still be willing to bet that the parts are from China, or another
foreign place, but assembled in US. I don't think there's anything truly
100% US made anymore. It's sad. I used to look for items that said "Made
In USA", but somewhere, these things would still have China, Hong Kong,
Taiwan or something stamped on them. Anymore, I just look products over
and buy the best of the junk, what do you do?
Irony, I bought an American flag last year, and it had a sticker on it,
saying, "Product of Malaysia".
I know how you feel Doug, it does get depressing at times, but cheer up. I
know for a fact that Secret Weapon Lures are made in the U.S.A.!
And last February, I was talking with David Gray, the president of Ardent
Reels. He told me that all of their reels are 100% made in the U.S., right
down to the components. Now, are you willing to pay the prices that come
along with the tag "Made in the USA?"
