It's a wrap on the Sportmans show and we want to take a moment to say a huge thank you!
Gripper Lures would not exist without the incredible people behind it — our long-time, loyal-to-the-bone customers who have supported us from the very beginning, the ones who run our lures season after season catching kings and telling their friends about us, and the people who believe in the brand. The ones who drive hours to come support us. You guys mean more to us than you know.
To Nolan who showed up and helped us when it got a bit crazy — we appreciate you more than we can put into words. Having people who believe in what we’re building and are willing to put in the time and effort beside us is something we never take for granted.
Thank you to my lovely wife, as it turns out running a booth and growing a human at the same time is a bit of a workout.
To our family and friends who, listen to our ideas, (brought us delicious food!) come to shows, and cheer us on — thank you for being our backbone.
And to the other lure makers and industry friends who have supported us, shared advice, and been genuinely kind and welcoming — this industry is full of some really great people and we’re very grateful to be a small part of it.
Gripper Lures is more than just a small (but mighty) lure company to us — it’s a community, and we’re incredibly thankful for every single one of you who supports what we do. Thank you for being here with us. 🎣
See you at the 2027 Toronto Sportsman's Show!
