Promar Offers Four New Landing
Nets For Trout And Kokanee Anglers
After your rod and reel, the landing
net is the most critical tool when fishing
for trout and kokanee. California based
fishing gear manufacturer American
Maple Inc has introduced 4 new landing
nets that are ideal for trout and kokanee
fishing in 2011.
Under their flagship brand Promar,
these new models are ideally suited
for both putting trout, kokanee and
landlocked kings into the cooler or
releasing them with minimal impact.
The latest in snag proof rubber mesh
net, the LN-101R is a wooden laminated
trout net with a stealthy crystal clear
transparent mesh that prevents spooking
the fish. The LN-10R sports a classic
trout look but is armed with the latest
technology in netting. The rubber bag will
resist snags from even the sharpest single
and treble hooks.
For bank fishing or when you need
that extra long reach, the new LN-806
scoop net is the perfect tool with a 3 to 8
foot telescoping adjustable handle and
a 19 inch collapsible frame. It’s really a
must have item for the bank fishing trout
angler.
An ideal net for packing, kayaking,
float tubing and shallow bank fishing is
the Trophy Series Model LN-701. It has
a fully collapsible frame and telescoping
adjustable handle. It comes with a canvas
carrying bag. The 16 by 16 inche frame
has a durable snag resistant Promesh bag
that’s easy on fish and just as easy on
snags.
Promar makes 3 larger models ideal
for handling larger fresh and saltwater
species. The smallest of the Promesh
Performance Series, the LN-650 has an
anodized black aluminum handle and
frame with the new Performance Series
Promesh snag resistant netting. The
telescoping handle extends out to 26
inches. This 12 by 16 inch hoop is ideal
for netting trout while fishing from float
tubes, kayaks, and low rail boats. Two
larger models, the LN-651 and the LN652 boast larger 20 and 24 inch frames
with 36 and 48 inch telescoping adjustable
handles.

How We Improved
A Lure That Needed
No Improvement.
“Don’t fix it unless it’s broke.” Heard that one a
million times. Did we listen? No. Luhr-Jensen’s never
been a company to sit on their laurels and watch the
clouds drift by. Even with our storied
Kwikfish ® --- the most renowned
salmon lure in the history of the sport.
It wasn’t easy to improve it but when we applied our
exclusive UV Bright finish we knew we’d done something special. Salmon after salmon tried to take it away
from us. Heck, it was never broke…it’s just better.

If you are a serious kokanee tournament angler or avid lake fisherman who targets
kokanee, coho, kings and trout, I recommend that you take some time and look at the
lures that Pirate of the American Lure Company are producing.
I had an opportunity to speak with Carlo Ramos, the designer and
owner of Pirate of the American Lure Company and simply asked
him what makes your lures different than other lure manufacturers?
He replied, “the quality.”
Over the past couple of years,
Carlo had only been making these
lures for himself and some of his
friends. Once these lures proved
themselves on lakes such as Lake
Berryessa, Don Pedro, Pardee,
Stampede and others, Carlo made
a decision to launch his company,
in November of 2010.
It all started because he was never
satisfied with other the kokanee,
coho, king and trout lures that are
currently on the market. Carlo decided to take the tried and true
features of the best lures on the market and with constant innovation
and countless hours of building and painting he was able to produce
a unique handcrafted trolling lure that will catch fish!
Another plus side is that purchasing these lures as part of your
collection, won’t break your bank account. The vision of the Pirate
of the American Lure Company “is dedicate to recreational and
avid anglers who expect the best Kokanee, Trout, Kings and Coho
trolling lures on a limited budget.”
With that in mind, it should not come as a surprise to you
that when Carlos recently took his products to the International
Sportsmen’s Expo in Sacramento, the response was so great, he
was completely sold out of lures by Saturday afternoon.
Pirate of the American Lure Co. products are designed to
exceed expectations and deliver surprising value to consumers.
Carlos spends countless hours building and painting a precise
color pattern to achieve the most favorable fluorescent colors.
If you missed Carlos the Sportsman’s Expo and would like to
take a look at his lures ,you can visit his Facebook page at Pirate
of the American Lure Co. You can also check out his website
