Gillies sold the firm on his retirement to Tasmania in the early 1960s, but as J.M. Gillies it remains a major player in the fishing tackle business.
As of 2012, JM Gillies has distributed brands such as Classic Lures, Classic Bluewater, Platil, Scotty, Superflex, Warlock, Smilin Jacks, Pegron, Killalure and Pradco lures (including Bomber, Rebel, Heddo, Cotton Cordell and Arbogast).
