Jimmy’s Story

Our fishing tackle division started with Jimmy Dodge in Ahsahka, Idaho. Jimmy has been hand making jigs and bobber on the North Fork of the Clearwater River for over 40 years. We bought out Jimmy Dodge tackle to keep his legacy going. We are now hand tying jigs just the way Jimmy always did.

North Fork Clearwater River

This is the River Jimmy was born and raised on. He has done most of his incredible fishing right here in Ahsahka, Idaho.
