Welcome to the Muskita Baits & Tackle Homepage

Muskita Baits are fishing lures and decoys handcrafted on an island in the St. Lawrence River, and in the country near Red Creek, New York, located a few miles south of Lake Ontario. The baits are carved and painted individually. The labels on the boxes usually feature vintage 1000 Islands postcard images and antique natural history prints. Muskita Baits are handmade one at a time, of scrap pine or cedar or spare wood parts; no two are quite alike. There are fish, bugs, ducks, frogs and many other critters to be found in this album of previously made baits.

"God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it." ~Daniel Webster

"Gentlemen may cry peace! peace! but there is no peace! The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the North will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field. Is life so dear, or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death." ~Patrick Henry

We have four boxes with which to defend our freedom: the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box. ~Unknown

"There are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by the gradual and silent encroachment of those in power, than by violent and sudden usurpation." ~President James Madison

"The thing that separates the American Christian from every other person on earth is the fact that he would rather die on his feet, than live on his knees!" ~George Washington
