In April 2004, Brooks & Baker, LLC signed a worldwide Licensing and manufacturing agreement with Flambeau, Inc. on the Night Ranger product line of lighted boxes. They are the only company with the rights to market the lighted tackle box. Equipped with the Night Ranger Waterproof Lighting System and it's adjustable Super Bright LED angled beam that boasts 150,000 hours (10 years) of life. The lighted tackle box was successfully unveiled at this years ICAST Show in Las Vegas, NV.
What makes this project unique verses many others is that is was conceived from start to finish by only 2 people...Todd C. Baker and Penny Brooks of Brooks & Baker, LLC. This entire project was personally self financed for last 8 years. All the research and development, prototyping and exposure by way of free advertising in magazines, newspapers and national televised news telecasts, not to forget the contract negotiations with Flambeau, Inc. (which took the space of 2 1/2 years) was solely on the shoulders of these two individuals.
The Night Ranger Lighted Tackle Box will be in major retailers this coming Spring in the USA, Canada and in the United Kingdom. Currently the tackle box is available from two on-line stores, Steves Fishing Supplies and Land Big Fish.
"When it comes to night time or early morning fishing...no other tackle box even comes close."
