LB Outfitters

[Txrex]

I was wondering if anyone on FWE has heard any news about LB Outfitters (StakeOut Stick). I talked to someone there several months ago about getting a replacement part but nothing since. I call and get voice mail. I E-mail but no reply. Now it looks like their website has gone t!t$ up. I would hate it if a good product mfg had gone under, especially since I now have a broken product with a lifetime warranty backed by............ who? If anyone here knows something, please share it with the rest of us.

Thanks

From what I understand they are no longer making stake out stiks... I know nothing more. They asked to be removed as sponsors about a week ago.

That's too bad, Little's a good guy. The original Stik is pretty bullet proof. I guess the second generation just didn't get enough field testing before it was released. That's the one they seem to have problems with.

The Stik is great! I wouldn't be chasing parts if I didn't want to continue using it. The problem appears to be the plastic parts (push foot and point). I have run across three or four people on other boards who broke the push foot (like me) and a couple who have lost the spike point when pulling the stick out of the bottom. Does anyone know where I can buy a push foot to put on the Stik?

Make a PVC "T" and epoxy it to the end of the stick. If it does not fit snug, use 1/4" masking tape w/ 1/4" gap in between as a bushing.

I remember seeing a post where Brian was talking about having new management... I wonder if he sold the rights to the SOS?

Bluewaver has a Jumbo SOS for sale in the Garage for $75 unused.

I put that T on my original and drilled the hole for the shackle. I also sharpened the point a bit. It works great that way.

Maybe put the PVC T on the new Stik where the broken foot was and either sharpen the other end with a grinder or carve a wooden point.

I ordered new mounting clips for my stake out stik and were charged for them, but they never shipped them. I have had several email converstations with them and was assured they would send them, but they never did. This was about 3-4 months ago. It was only $10 or so, but still, kinda pissed me off.

If Monte doesn't have a set, I do and I'm not going to use them. I like mine to flop around on the deck now that I have a boat with sides. PM me if you want them, they are still in the packaging.

Thanks a bunch guys. I will gladly take them off your hands.
