Mark Harris:
Has anyone else noticed a big improvement in the quality of the finishing on PD lures?

For a long time I stayed away from Patriot Design lures for the same as reason as avoiding Fisherman lures - the poor quality of finish relative to the pricing.

I recently though bought a bunch of Master Bomb 155s in person at a store as I was absolutely sure the quality of the finish was better than it used to be. Have played with these a bit since, and there is no doubt. 

I would like to think that PD have taken notice of feedback, especially as they include a feedback form (in English!) in each lure package.  If so, top marks to them.

Any other users noticed this?

How about some of the sponsors here who sell them?

Duncan O'Connell:
As a stockist of Patriot Designs we have seen an improvement on the qaulity of the finish and the durability of the lures. We seem to think they have improved the qaulity of the paints that they are now using.

Mark Harris:
Thanks for that. It is good to know that my impression was not false!

It also makes me want to have a try of some of the newer PD stickbaits.

Duncan O'Connell:
Hey Mark,

It's Tom here,
You're right the finishes have definitely become more durable over the past 6 months or so.

As a whole Patriot seem to be updating a lot of their current offerings, new rods, lures etc.

Makes for some exciting times ahead! I can't wait to try the 240mm and 260mm Fatpats!

Cheers
Tom

Warwick Joyce:
So Tom any scoop on the range of new PD rods and their specs?
