The Power Skoop
By Thompson Mfg.
Thank you for your interest in the POWER SKOOP.
My name is Dave Thompson and I’ve been an avid angler since I was just a small boy. In my 40+ years of fishing I have become quite skilled at fishing and have caught nearly every specie of game fish available to me in Northern California.
Several days each year I like to get away from the valley and find myself on one of the many mountain reservoirs pursuing the many trout species that we have available. I have come to learn that the most common and most effective bait used for our most abundant trout (planted Rainbow) is Power Bait. I can safely assume that Power Bait is the most popular trout bait on the market.
I have used a lot of Power Bait in my years and realized that removing this stuff from the jars is a task requiring the skills of McGuyver. You can use a stick, your fingers or a knife but these methods are either primitive, messy, or hazardous to children. I always wondered why nobody sold a small scoop to get the stuff out of the jars and roll it into a small ball, much like an ice-cream scoop. I have searched far and wide, doing many hours of research to find such a tool, to no avail. It is such an obvious idea and yet unavailable to the trout fishing market. If I had found one I would have bought it. I thought that if I would buy such a tool, so would many others, there must be a market for it.
So I made the commitment to develop this product to my exact specifications and have the item manufactured exclusively for this purpose.
The “POWER SKOOP” by Thompson Mfg. So basic in design and yet so extremely useful to all fisherman that use any brand of the very popular dough type trout baits.
I am extremely confident that the POWER SKOOP will be the new “MUST HAVE” tool for nearly all users of Power Bait and all other dough type trout baits. I also believe that this tool will be as common in the fisherman’s tackle box as nail clippers and hook files.
