Welcome to Throbbin' Rod Tackle Company!

After years of putting off the inevitable, we have finally begun our journey into e-commerce.

We're not the new guys on the block; we've been around it, window shopping and comparing and searching for great deals both through our manufacting capabilities and researching competitors and gaining the trust of other manufacturers of quality fishing products.

I started on July 4th, 1990 in Portland, Oregon manufacturing sinkers for local fishermen as a part-time hobby business to help pay for my fishing habit! It's worked well over the years — i've met a ton of great people and got to do things most fishermen only dream of! I've kept the business very small because there's only so much time a man has to engage in his hobby. The past several years have been more demanding — acquiring new accounts — developing new product lines — maintaining customer satisfaction — assuring top quality — prompt and dependable delivery.

Behind any successful venture there are those who, perhaps without knowing or trying, provide the fundamentals and foundations for any hard working person to achieve their goals. There are people in my life that have helped me and guided me to this point — some family — some friends — some competitors. There've been a few flies in the ointment — but what good's ointment without a fly or two??!!

We have just acquired Cure-All® Bait Products from Kendaco in Astoria, Ore., and believe it to be some of the finest bait cures on the market! I'm not going to stick my neck out too far and say it's the BEST — but I will say there's none better.

We are currently seeking distributors for our products — primarily bulk sinkers, bait cure and sturgeon rigs. Information can be obtained on the Contact Us page.

Because of the many types of fishing — and fish — we're doing what we know best: Pacific Northwest species.

Thanks for taking the time to check us out. As you can see — we don't have a shopping cart set up yet, but that's in the works. Drop us a line from the Contact Us page and we'll undoubtedly save you some money on sinkers! And finally — you're wondering about the name of my company! I was reading a weekly column by a local fisherman/writer by the name of Ed McQuarry. He liked telling fishing stories tied in with tips and ideas and was read by billions and billions of readers here in Portland!! He was telling a story of a slow day on the Willamette River in his boat with his best friend Charlie — enjoying a fishless leasurely afternoon when all of a sudden Charlie's rod began throbbing with the weight of a heavy spring chinook! The rest is history!! Be a part of history and buy Throbbin' Rod Tackle Company products — where Chinook is King!!
