Born and raised on Long Island, NY, I’ve been known as “Bear” since I was a kid. Every bucktail I make is built by hand, one at a time.

I use only high-quality, natural materials—no shortcuts. From premium deer hair to tough, saltwater-ready components, each jig is made to perform and built to last.

Whether you’re casting for striped bass in the surf or jigging for fluke, I’m here to help you catch some fish!
