Got a message from a buddy that Southern Plastics is closing? They make BPS, SK, and a lot of other companies soft plastics. Per the website they produce 70% of all soft plastics in the US.

    Think they moved everything to Costa Rica.  GSM will now probably be the largest soft plastic manufactures in the U.S.

    You will ever know the difference where the production soft plastics are made, same brand and packaging. The Southern Plastics employees who lost their jobs will know.

    When GL moved production to Guatemala it was night and day difference as far quality goes.  All of the baits I got were bagged before they had cured which ruined them.  The worst part is GL had the audacity to keep the price the same.
