Bullet Weight Brief History: Source www.bulletweights.com/about
What began as a simple but unique idea, became the building
block of one of the largest and most innovative sinker manufacturing companies
in the United States. Larry Crumrine, an engineer and avid fisherman, had the simple
idea of designing a lead weight with a shape that could more easily be fished by
bass anglers in heavy cover. He eventually developed a “bullet”-shaped sinker
that would eventually become a staple among almost every angler in the
world.
The uniquely shaped weight became the launching point in 1970
for Crumrine’s new company called Bullet Weights®, Inc. with the first
manufacturing facility located in Grand Island, Nebraska. Crumrine promoted the
new sinker vigorously through local and regional fishing tournaments and the
product caught on quickly.
