Poly Chrome Sharks: Time To Clear The Air

Image
Poly Chrome Sharks! Let me clarify a few misconceptions and rumors that are floating around the pristine waters of Scandinavia regarding Poly Chrome Sharks: there is nothing wrong with them. They work exactly as well as real chrome, they are just as durable, and they are suppose to cost a lot less than chrome plated Sharks! The only problems is when they are being misrepresented as chrome plated Sharks and people charge far too much money for them. Then of course there are those opportunistic individuals who never miss an opportunity to generate negative publicity about Sharks. For the record, our Black Faceted Sharks have outsold real chrome Sharks in the USA for the past five years by a ratio of 9:1. They are coated with the same polyester plastic that is used on Polychrome Sharks. It is the same material used on propane cylinders on your barbeque tanks and NFL football helmets. In fact the Poly Chrome Sharks have two layers of baked on polyester; the first coat is white to make the

Telling It like It Is: The Pro Am Captains Speak Out

Image
Official Pro Am Magazine Shark Cannonballs would like to thank the organizing committee for the 2008/2009 Lake Ontario Pro Am Salmon & Trout Team Tournaments for formally acknowledging the winning role the Shark Cannonball has played in the Pro Am Tournament in the official Pro Am Magazine. For the first time in the history of salmon tournaments anywhere in the world the organizing committee for the Pro Am took the bold step of giving Shark Cannonballs formal credit in reporting the results of the 2008 Pro Am Series. Up until now it has been a tradition for officials and sports writer's everywhere to only report the name of the lure, the manufacturing company, and the color of the lure used by the winning teams. It was generally acknowledged the lure was responsible for the victories. We have been told privately by hundreds of teams all over the world it was their belief the Shark was responsible for actually attracting the fish; the role of the lure was to hook them once they

Give Credit Where Credit is Due

Captain Troy Creasy I would be remiss indeed if I did not comment why the Sapphire/Chrome Shark is not only still around but is one of our best sellers. We retired the model many years ago because of production problems at the time: flaking paint. It drove me crazy! We tried everything, the paint just would not stick. Captain Troy Creasy from New York, High Adventure Fishing, just would not let it go, the Blue/Silver Shark model was his favorite Shark and that's all there was to it. When we announced we were cancelling the model, Troy kicked up such a fuss; I agreed to make a few special one's for his personal use if he promised not to tell anyone; he did keep his promise, after all, it turned out to be his secret weapon. I was running late as usual to my committed delivery time; I did not have any of our usual silver automotive paint on hand, so we took a few real chrome Sharks and sprayed them with some of the new automotive sapphire paint specially made for chrome. WOW!!!!!
