He made jigs, black lights, spinner baits, trailers and also sold spinner bait blades and skirts for do it yourselfers. His products were always top notch.

I knew Stan and his family most of my life. He was an interesting individual to say the least.

I heard that the business was for sale. I am not sure if that is true or not. I have caught many big fish on a Sloan spinnerbait.

I hadn't heard that.
I know I've sent a lot of money his way with all the blades of his I've used. That's all I keep on my night time spinnerbaits.
