			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello Everyone - My name is Alan Wardle and I'd like to introduce myself as the new owner and operator of this web site. Captain Jack has moved on and is enjoying his well earned retirement!&nbsp;</p>
<p>I have been in the tackle making/manufacturing business for over 20 years, firstly in the Bahamas where I grew up and learned a thing or two about fishing. As a child I would regularly re-tie old torn up No Alibi feather lures using anything I could find to create a skirt from. This was back in the 70's when everything we had would we would find second uses for! Nothing went to waste.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Since 2008 I have been living and working making lures and tackle in North Carolina, BahamaLure is our flagship brand and we have several others as well including CenterFire lures, Legend Lures, the new SADU lures and more.&nbsp;</p>
<p>For this web site the goal is to provide the best possible top quality Spreader bars and lures, Made in the USA.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Bluefin Tuna Tackle spreader bars, lures and squid are all made domestically by small family owned companies.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Please call or email us at any time with questions, we are here to build the best possible tackle we can for you.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thank you! Alan W.&nbsp;</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Chief among the new products are three new Spreader Bar models, each of which may be rigged with a variety of Green Machines, Bulb Squid, Humboldt squid or Manchas.&nbsp;</p><p>First is the California BlueFin Bar. This was designed specifically for the long drop or deep drop back style of trolling popular in CA for targeting boat wary Pacific Bluefin. This bar features a unique to Bluefin Tackle 13" hard foam bird in the center, this bird has enough floatation to support the titanium bar and hold it up out of the water to greatly reduce drag and 'digging'. Available in several colors and configurations, buy two or more together and receive a free tote bag that's big enough to hold several CA bars and some regular ones as well. Free Shipping too!</p><p>Second is the Ultimate Bluefin Bar featuring a full sized marlin lure in the center holding the bar and providing maximum splash & commotion. Also available with all the different lures and combinations.&nbsp;</p><p>Next is the Bluefin Tackle Bar, a more conventional spreader bar with an oversize Green Machine lure in the center. Great for Yellowfin or Blackfin tunas too, this can be had in several rig configurations as well.&nbsp;</p><p>ALL our bars are Free Shipping to the lower 48 States.&nbsp;</p>]]></description>
