In 2001, our family purchased a set of homemade molds from a gentleman that had previously made these lures for almost 40 years. So it is with great pride and commitment that our family continue making slabs for America's fishing enjoyment. We produce these slabs out of our homes on weeknights, weekends, or whenever time allows. We are a family of six and enjoy fishing as well. There is nothing fancy about them! There is nothing luxurious about them! However, these are fishing lures and that is what they successfully do... lure the fish to you!
