Lexington County man manufactures popular lure

The lures, also known by some as "Striper Swipers," are hand-made, packaged, delivered or mailed by Delorme Arant at a rate of about 1,000 a week. Demand has grown to such an extent that he has been forced to turn down business, which is a problem he hopes to correct with his soon-to-expand enterprise.
