Plastisol wanted

Post by kingofbeasts »

Hi guys, is there any source of plastisol here in Ottawa -Gatineau area? I've started pouring my own soft plastics and I was wandering if I can find some materials nearby or I must order online from the states. If you happen to know something on this subject please share here some of that info. I really appreciate it.

Thank you very much, I did some digging myself and it seems that there are some online Canadian vendors of lures components (mostly in the great lakes area) . I was hoping that I can find something locally but did not. I must admit that I am a bit surprised that in a region so rich in waters, and quite populated with lots of anglers like the Ottawa-Gatineau area is, one cannot find much professional tackle or components for custom made rods and lures. :o I've expected differently and, before coming here, I thought that in a country with 6 winter months out of 12, people will be more inclined to create and the custom part of fishing will be more developed. :roll: Considering the quality of life here I was also expecting to find professional tackle at every corner store and was kind of disappointed to see that not even big stores like BassPro or Cabela,s carry high end tackle. :( Considering the above, I assume that the waters here are so rich in fish that, for most people, it doesn't really matter what do you catch them with. :?:

Our address is 510 St Lawrence st in Winchester. To enter the store though, go to the back of the building off the parking lot. Weird location but it works. :shock:

We are open tomorrow from 9am to 5 pm. I won't hold Floats recommendation against you. :D
