About the Owner

I remember fishing when I was very young. We would sit along the banks of the Sabine River hoping for a good channel cat, wade for bass in the shallows along the bridge at Lake O’ the Pines, or a take a quick trip to the local pond, no matter what, we were always tossing a line. As a toddler I caught my first fish, a crappie, when I was just 3-years old…on a piece of macaroni. Although I’m not sure I remember that story as it happened, or if it has just become real over the years, in my mind it’s facts! Needless to say, I eat more macaroni now then I use for bait, but nonetheless, that’s where it started.

Then in 2019, after spending 16+ years in the Air Force, I had to leave service earlier than expected due to medical reasons. However, as luck would have it, I needed something to occupy my time and Funky Paint Lures was born. Just 6 short years later, here we are, a proud veteran, the best husband ever (just ask Mrs. FPLures), and a incredibly proud Dad. I can’t predict the future…I definitely couldn’t predict mine; however, I do know that if you tie on a FP Lure, you’re gonna get bit!
