Fishing has been fairly slow, besides some standout reports from the far south on the long range boats getting mixed yellowfin and bluefin. Manufacturers have confirmed some price increases for next year now that all of the tariffs have filtered in. Daiwa and Okuma will have a small increase on select product made outside of China since up to this point they have not raised the pricing on those goods this year despite their costs going up. Fuji components will be going up in price as well which will impact all domestic rod manufacturers like UC which has not had a price increase for several years despite quickly rising costs. Many other companies like them decided to wait, holding out and absorbing the increases as long as they could, instead of raising prices multiple times like some did. Pure Fishing will have a price decrease on some products which is good news, but we don't know the details on which yet.
