Grumpy Bait Company

The Grumpy Bait Company:

FOUNDED IN 2020

2020 will go down in history as one of the world’s most challenging times due to the deadly Corona Virus (COVID-19).

Everyone was affected one way or another and many found themselves working from home or jobless.

That’s when the idea of GRUMPY Bait Company was conceived by Martin (Marty) Draeger, also founder of the popular fishing app – FISHBUOY Pro.

The recreational industry, including fishing, had seen a significant increase in demand as a result of COVID-19.

Fishing stores, outdoor recreational manufacturers were not able to keep up with demand and overseas products were not making it across the borders.

North America leaders asked Canadians and Americans to step up and fill the supply gap – that’s just what we did!

As a passionate angler and entrepreneur, Marty decided to start pouring soft plastic baits from his garage to meet the demands from local fishing retailers.

Within a few weeks, Marty hand-designed 6X goby, 5X paddle tail, 1X shad, 2X minnow and 1X crawdaddie soft plastic baits.

Today, GRUMPY Bait Company has turned into a family business and continues to develop new innovative bait designs and color combinations to meet the needs of anglers.

We service anglers from around the world.
