OME fits my three ten criteria, and I like this stock a lot.
A few months ago, my 3-10 was "telling" me this stock is a winner, but I didn't listen as OME trades at very low volume, and I didn't see any upside potential in its chart.
After OME went up 50+% during the last 3 months, I've learned I need to listen to my 3-10.

I don't think OME is going to be a huge winner, but it's definitely going to be a nice one.
I consider OME my long term holding.

Here is what can be found on Omega's website.
I like it as it sounds very promising to me.

Omega Protein Corporation is the world's largest producer of omega-3 fish oil and North America's largest manufacturer of protein-rich specialty fishmeal and organic fish solubles.

Omega Protein markets a custom line of omega-3 fish oil, protein-rich specialty fishmeal and organic fish solubles for aquaculture, companion animal, livestock and equine feed manufacturers. We produce ultra-refined, molecularly distilled omega-3 ingredients for human food manufacturers, and we market branded fish solubles as agronomic plant food.

Only Omega Protein has the custom products, expertise and resources to help your company take advantage of the proven benefits of omega-3 fatty acids and the superior amino acid profile of fish protein.

The high growth in fish meal and fish oil products may be over. But even if OME experiences slow growth or no growth, they are still profitable and cheap enough to be a decent investment.

I always buy the Tropicana OJ with Omega 3 fish oil. Not because I think it's good for me, I just like the perversity of the idea. I think we're in an alternate universe and this is what happened in the main one:

CEO: "Hey, what would make this delicious orange juice even better?"
Underling: "FISH OIL!"
CEO: "You're fired."

a couple of months ago i started taking fish oil pills as a dietary supplement to see if it would help my aching knee. i have been in pain for many years and often walked with a limp. it worked! after only a few days my knee is almost completely painless and the rest of my aging joints feel better. i did some research to find a company in the fish oil business. omega protein corp. is my choice for my investment dollar. i think my fellow baby boomers could grow this market for many years.

Farmers have switched soy bean fields to corn this year. Soy beans are up. Fish meal competes with Soy bean meal. Expect fish meal prices to rise.

Omega Protein Inc is the largest producer, marketer and distributor of protein rich meal and oil, derived from aquatic sources. Its protein rich meal products are derived from a fish called Menhaden, and are commonly used as a protein ingredient in animal feed for swine, cattle, aquaculture and household pets. However, fish oil, extracted from same fish species, is utilized for industrial applications, additives to human food products and dietary supplements, in addition to animal and aquaculture feeds.

The Hurricanes Katrina and Rita severely damaged the production capacity of its fish processing facilities at Moss Point, Cameron, Louisiana and Abbeville during August and September 2005. It also severely damaged its shipyard at Moss Point. However all the facilities that were severely affected by the natural calamities have become fully operational. This would lead to a higher production tonnage in the coming years.

The company is in the process of building a new technical center at Houston, Texas to further develop its refined oil, OmegaPure food grade Omega-3 product line. This investment in technical resources will expand its capacity to provide technical product development support for its customers who want to incorporate OmegaPure, Omega-3 essential fatty acids into their food products. The company’s annual aggregate processing capacity is approximately 850,000 tons as of September 30, 2006.

The weather for fishing season in gulf was favorable this year compared to the devastating effects last year on account of hurricane. The Atlantic fishing season dependent on weather could still have some time left for the fishing season to complete. This could augur well for catch from Atlantic Ocean. Considering the above factors, long term investors can take exposure to the stock Omega Protein.
