Gibbs fishing lures are still made in America

5.26.2011: Dan Smalley and his son Matt Smalley talks about the small manufacturing operation they and co-partner Dennis Ryan, run. Among other things they make are Gibbs salt water fishing lures at their Cumberland factory. Gibbs Lures were first popularized on the Cape Cod Canal after World War II, by Stan Gibbs. Smalley bought the rights to make the lures again a few years ago. The gear remains a tackle box mainstay.
