Hi Robin,
This is George with American Maple, we are a fishing tackle manufacture base out Los Angeles area. I found you on the website about the squid competition. I was searching for squiding in England because recently we got some inquiries coming for UK consumer on our website about our squid jigs. We are not yet distributing in UK yet but would like find a good representative or distributor in UK who knows the market. Please let me know if you will be so kind to point me in the right direction.
Please take a look at our site www.americanmaple.com

Its getting towards that time of year that the long thin squid make their annual visit for their Spring break to Brighton in East Sussex. They turn up anytime between the end of March and the beginning of MAy, and are around until the end of May most years. The competition dates will be called at short notice, with an eye to the squid arriving and the weather, to ensure the best results for the entrants. This year we might have Sky TV coming to play as well. At this years events there will be a brief explanation of the most succesful methods to date, to ensure an even opportunity for even newcomers to squidding to do well. Last year we had just two blanks, and one was me...... <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
IF you are in the UK around this time, please do consider coming down to see us. I will put the exact dates on here as I know them. The event will be sponsored by TRONIX, a rapidly growing tackle wholesaler/distributor, who do import some tidy squid jigs. If they do the same as last year, there will be a free jig on entry. There will be an entrance fee, with 100%, minus the day ticket costs, going to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. In the UK, the coastal rescue is perfomed by the RLNI, a purely charity funded organisation, made up of volunteers. Us sea users in the UK will all have need of their services if we didnt use them already (I did, twice!!) so I feel it is an appropriate organisation to receive the proceeds.
Prizes will be secured from local businesses, and will be mostly tackle orientated.
Hope to see you there. Updates will follow as to the squid situation between now and the main event.
Cheers
Robin
