After being infected with Musky Fever in 1983, I did what most
new Musky anglers do…I spent a lot of time on the water, mainly
in Wisconsin, without being very productive.
I went to shows, attended seminars, joined Musky Clubs,
subscribed to magazines and watched fishing shows and Musky
videos. I also spent a lot of money on my Musky quest.
In 1989, I was fortunate to hook up with some accomplished Musky
anglers on the Chippewa Flowage. The knowledge of tactics and
lures and tackle that I gained gave me the tools to be
productive on the water.
I started making my own surface lures in 1996 after being
disappointed with the standard selections available from most
Musky fishing outlets. I began with the Best American Globe
and I now make two versions of toppers (Turbo and Mini-Turbo)
and a winged lure called The Best American Crawler.
I also started making solid wire stainless steel
leaders because I found that the “over-the-counter” varieties
were not what I needed to balance my tackle.
My philosophy is that I will not sell anything that I would not and
have not used myself. I field test new lure configurations
before I make them available for sale. Each lure that I sell is
water tested to ensure consistent performance. If you are not
happy with the lure, just send it back and I will refund the
cost of the lure.
I sell my lures online through Jackson Lures Unlimited. Jackson
Lures sells and ships world wide and maintains a business
philosophy that guarantees the satisfaction of the customer.

I get all my lure and leader hardware from Moore’s Lures with
the exception of the 3/0 Owner Stinger hooks that are installed
on every lure I sell. (The Owner hooks require no sharpening.)
Each of my tackle product pages has a description of each item that may seem a bit long winded, however, I feel that it it is important for you to know as much as you can about a lure you are buying site-unseen.
With the exception of the Owner hooks, these lures are 100% made
in America. Since I personally make every lure and leader, I can
guarantee the quality of the products I sell.
