Hi guys,
first of all, apologies for all the fuss caused, and for not using caps in my texts.
i'm daric, founder and ceo of predator research laboratories or pr-labs in short. owa poppers are produced for christian based on an oem basis. we are only responsible for producing these poppers for him and in no way are we related to any sales of these poppers to the public. we will not be supplying him with anymore poppers with reasons that i would prefer not to publicly announce. i'm here to clarify not prosecute. owa is a label that we helped created for him and will no longer be in existence once his holding stock runs out. we will not be restricting him if he wishes to continue to use this label by sourcing for other manufacturers to produce for him, but kindly take note that we are no longer affiliated with him or this label.
steve, owas are not produced in china and they certainly do not have the balancing problems that you mentioned in your posts. each and every piece of popper that we produce have their centre of gravity determined before the hole for the swivel is drilled, and we, unlike most of the china manufacturers, field test our products before we start to sell them. have you fished with these lures personally and are you 100% sure that the lures you claim that are not well balanced are the oem poppers produced by us? if not, i would appreciate that you could verify your claims that the poppers produced by us have the problems that you mentioned in one of your post. it may not be rocket science but i can definitely assure you that building and fine tuning the performance of a well balanced popper is not a straight forward matter of simply adding more weight. if our products are not performing as they should, then i believe that one of your countryman owning an online store wouldn't have gone through the trouble of buying and sending our Evolution series to several china manufacturers to try to have them duplicated. to date, there are no china manufacturers that i know of that are capable of producing poppers with decent performance. one of the statements that you said is true though; they don't understand about lure balance.
andrew, thanks for your kind assistance with regards to my request sometime back. you should know what i'm referring to.
chris, thanks for standing up for our products.
scott, they are replicas of carpenter's seafrog. knock offs they are, but i can assure you that the quality and performance are not compromised because they are economically priced. there are many anglers out there with pockets of varying depths and we are well capable of producing tip top finishing like those found on the premium japanese labels, and when our customers are ready to fork out 100 usd for a lure, we have no qualms about producing lures of such calibre. some of the japs lures like craftbaits have really high quality in terms of finishing, while the most of them are over priced, hyped up by propaganda. i'm sorry for your plight with regards to your encounter with christian. in good will, i will send you some Evolution poppers to cover some of your losses. please email me your full mailing address including your tel numbers to
[email protected] for shipping purposes. it's gonna take at least a month for me to process the poppers that i'm sending to you, but rest assure that you will receive them from me.
staying at your disposal,
