Salty Old Guy Tackle began with a passion for fishing and a desire to make a difference in the world. The founder of the company is a first responder who has spent 30 years serving the community and helping others in times of need. But in his spare time, he loves to fish and is always looking for ways to improve his gear and catch. Fishing became a passion and a way to heal the pain he felt from the trauma of his job. Fishing is an escape to a peaceful, natural setting that helps him reconnect with nature and find joy in the everyday.

Our founder decided to try his hand at making his own fishing jigs. He started experimenting with different colors, shapes, and sizes and soon found that he had a talent for creating high-quality, effective jigs that he was proud to use on his trips. So he founded this business, specializing in handmade jigs. His mission is to create products that not only help people catch more fish but also make a positive impact on the world by getting people into nature and removing the stress of day-to-day life.

He supports peer support programs in the first responder program, suicide prevention programs for first responders and military personnel, and all forms of self-care for healing. Along with the discount we give to these individuals to promote self-care, we are also going to use our platform to spread the word about mental health illness and the importance of recognizing the illness and getting help for it.
