Our story
Backwater started in a garage with one mold and a lot of trial and error. After years of buying baits that didn't swim right, I started pouring my own — tweaking colors and action until they flat-out caught fish.
Today every order is still mixed, poured, and packed by hand. When you buy a pack, you're getting baits made by someone who actually fishes them.
Hooked anglers
"The paddle tails have a thump you can feel through the rod. Smashed a 6-pounder first cast. Ordering more colors."
"Green pumpkin sticks are my confidence bait now. Tougher than the big brands and half the price."
"You can tell these are made by someone who fishes. Action is on point and shipping was quick."
