Driftwood Custom Baits

Driftwood Custom Baits

A small, home-based company in Jasper specializing in hand-poured custom soft plastic fishing baits, primarily swimbaits. It operates as a family-oriented or individual-run business focused on high-quality, field-tested products for bass fishing, with its home lake being Nickajack Lake.

Key Details:

• Products: They offer hand-poured swimbaits (e.g., 3-inch, 4.25-inch, 5-inch, 7-inch sizes like Driftshad), Senko-style baits (e.g., the “Tyrant”), swimbait heads, rigs, and other soft plastics. Baits use a special blend of materials for durability, realistic swimming action (even in cold water), and proven effectiveness. Popular colors include shad patterns, Grasshopper, Blue Gizzard, Green Gizzard, and others.
• Philosophy: All products are tested extensively by the maker(s) on local waters like Nickajack, Chickamauga, and Guntersville lakes, with emphasis on “made in USA” (specifically Tennessee) quality.
• Reputation: Anglers report success catching quality bass (including 7–9 lb fish). The baits appear in tournament wins, local fishing videos, and are sold through their site and retailers like Guntersville Tackle.

It’s a niche, passionate maker of custom tackle geared toward serious bass anglers who value handcrafted, regionally proven lures over mass-produced options.
