New “Lil Jon colors for 2012 Mirror Lure Lil Jon

2.10.2012

I know the Lil Jon were doing really well amongst my circle of friends that fishes south west Florida, but they tells me the Lil Jon are rocking and rolling all over Florida. Not only that they are starting to do really good in Texas as well. And like Mark of DOA was telling me, international sales has really picked up. Good to see local companies doing well in this economy.

Here’s the scoop folks. I was visiting the L&S/MirroLure factory yesterday to do a little factory tour video(coming soon). Mike T. was cool enough to show me the new colors they are coming out with specifically for the ever popular Lil Jon plastics.
