Bruce's Tacklebox

Welcome to Bruce's Tackle Box!
For those who are not familiar with my work, I am a passionate fisherman as well as a lure maker and take great pride in my work. I slowly turned a hobby into a business when friends and fellow fisherman started asking to buy my custom made lures. Over time I managed to turn making lures into my full time job and am now lucky enough to be making a living doing it. I make lures of all sorts and for all kinds of fish, but mostly musky. I invite everyone to come join me on Facebook. You will have the opportunity to see my lures in various stages of completion as well be able to converse with others around the globe who fish Bruce Lures!

My lures are available as soon as they are completed. Please check out my

store. All auctions start at $0.99!

	Here are some incredible lures made by my friend Richard who is responsible for getting me into making lures. He has been making fishing baits of all sorts for years and now he has mastered the art of making hard baits. I first met him when I purchased his amazing soft frogs which out fished any other soft baits I had used. Now his hard baits do the same. You will not find these baits down aisle 9 in a store and the fish haven't seen them before either. I guarantee they will give you the edge you need to catch more and bigger fish. He is also the person who designed this site for me and I think he did and incredible job. To purchase his lures, just click the links below the pictures to the left and right, you won't be disappointed.
