I’m looking into investing in fishing or tackle companies that are public. Any names or companies to invest in? 
Bass Pro and Pure Fishing are not public. 

You might look at some of the site sponsors.

Cali, you may want to consider speaking with an investment counselor with a company like Legg Mason or your bank who can do the research for you regarding your query.

 

Or, you can take a list of possible companies to invest in and then go to your local library and look them up in the research section to see if they are public and how their stock has performed.

 

Just remember that you are entering a world that is totally different from your environment and it has all types of numbers, ratios, future projections, if there were any payments made to stockholders, go with either a common or preferred stock, and  note the charts for company performance that you may need a professional investment counselor to explain.

 

Then decide if you want to use a Roth IRA, add this purchase to your existing IRA, or just make the purchase outside of these two retirement vehicles.

 

In other words, when shopping for jewelry you go to a jeweler, not a used car lot. So please consider going with a professional investment counselor who has insight into and can look at the ratios, performance history, and future projections and let you know if the investment is a good one.

 

Good luck.

If you claim to be a middle eastern prince , I’ll do it! 

Personally, I avoid any fishing related investments because it's hard to think of a worst industry to invest in.  That's just my opinion.  That said here are a few public companies I know of.

 

Johnson Outdoors (JOUT) - Humminbird Electronics,  Minn-Kota  and a lot of other outdoor stuff like Kayaks and canoes.

 

Brunswick Corporation (BC) - Mercury Marine,  a bunch of boat brands including Lund and Lowes.

 

Garmin Ltd (GRMN) - Swiss company listed on the NASDAQ. Electronics and now trolling motors.  This is a large company,  their fishing products are probably a small portion of their business.

 

Shimano Inc. (SHMDF) - Japanese company but you can buy the stock over the counter.  Rods, Reels and lots of other stuff.
