Musky Mania Tackle burst onto the scene in 1992. Initial production was of a jerkbait called the "Burt™". For the first time, serious muskie and pike anglers had a jerkbait made of high-impact plastic that could withstand any punishment trophy fish could dish out. Burt was tough, good-looking … but was also quickly recognized as the best-hooking jerkbait on the market.
