I don't know who is the longest, but I don't feel we should discredit or not give a good nod to those who take on the old lines and continue their great work. They take on risks in doing so and they help provide us with good products and diversity.

I believe this is a stupid question. How many has collected glands and made their own lures and baits. Fox urine and glands are a gland lure that is used the next year. People have been trying for years to find anything that would draw an animal to the set. Either that or blind sets for traps or snare. The question should be who was in business .

I didn't start making Dobbins' Lures until 1997 after dad passed in that year. So, I've only been at it for about 29 years.

I assumed your dad was selling lure as Dobbins brand before that.

Yes, he started sometime in the 70s, but I don't know exactly when.
