In 1952, Blayney Scott started a small company in Victoria, British Columbia, that pioneered the use of plastics in the manufacturing of salmon fishing lures and other marine products. From humble beginnings, Scott Plastics Ltd. has evolved to produce thousands of products under the Scotty trademark which are sold to the fishing, marine, outdoor and firefighting industries worldwide. Now with markets all over North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and beyond, Scotty products are gaining a reputation for being top quality, but still affordable in the face of rising production costs.
