  • Take the Family Fishing
    CATALOGUE 2019-2020 GLOBAL ROUND UP It’s not hard to tell that at Halco we love fishing. We do it a lot and we are inspired by creating great products. The design and creation of lures is not achieved by focus groups, nor surveys, it’s generally driven by Tim and me out fishing and seeing an opportunity for a great new product for the Halco line up. Then I get busy in the design room and with input from the team a new product is born. But it doesn’t end there, we then make it in our factory, test it, fine tune it and catch on it. Only then is it ready to go to market. SLIDOG 150 SLIDOG 125 It’s a fun and rewarding process, but often time consuming and frustrating. This year has seen the design and creation of the Slidog 125 and the Poltergeist 110, both variations of current products but both with their own set of challenges. There’s more on the way too!
