BLOCK ISLAND, RI, MARCH 13th, 2008 – Fishing gear company, Old Harbor Outfitters (OHO), recently showcased their 2008 line of products at the Miami International Boat Show and Fred Hall’s Fishing Tackle and Boat Show in Long Beach, California. The Fred Hall Show marks OHO’s official launch into the West Coast sportfishing market.
“Not everybody fishes the exact the same way, even when targeting the same fish. In 2007, we spent some time on the West Coast figuring out what Pacific anglers needed and even more time on the water so that we could see for ourselves. Our Spring line of fishing gear, fishing clothing and Titanium Bonded fishing knives has the quality and innovation that is necessary for the East and the West Coast,” said CEO Captain Steve Tempini.
New OHO California merchants include Dana Landing (San Diego, CA), Baja Fish Gear (Lomita, CA), The Longfin (Orange, CA). For a complete list of OHO’s California dealers, visit their website at OldHarborOutfitters.com.
During its second year exhibiting at the Miami International Boat Show, Old Harbor Outfitters was awarded second place in the Innovation Showcase for its full line of marine grade fishing tools. OHO Titanium Bonded™ tools are three times harder than stainless steel and have the highest corrosion resistance rating in their class.
