Since 1925, our mission has remained steadfast: provide anglers with the highest quality fishing tackle possible for wherever the fish are biting. We accomplish that through a commitment to American manufacturing, a dogged desire to serve anglers of all levels, and a reverence for the outdoors. We are proud to empower anglers to connect with nature and to enjoy the thrill of fishing.
A fish hook is more than a formed piece of wire with a point on one end and an eyelet on the other. It represents the connecting point between you and your angling dreams, whether sitting on lawn chairs catching trout with friends and family or competing at the highest level in the sport. Since 1925, in Denver, Colorado, the men and women of Eagle Claw have been privileged to ensure that connection.
From the initial founding of the company, where an eagle's talon inspired one of our founders, Drew McGill, to alter his fish hook, the idea that what we make isn't just a fish hook has permeated our company.
Today, every Eagle Claw hook combines generations of American Hook makers' wisdom with cutting-edge technology. These hooks aren't just about connecting anglers to fish; they're about connecting people to nature, tradition, and each other. They're about the thrill of the catch, the peace of the water, and the stories that unfold between.
Eagle Claw continues to grow and serve new markets with quality, innovative products via six notable brands: Wright & Mcgill, Eagle Claw, Lazer Sharp, Shappell, Trokar and Jet Sled. Each brand serves a segment of anglers with tailored feature sets for different needs–meaning no matter where you are in your angler journey, there is an Eagle Claw product ready to serve.
At the heart of our Pro Staff are passionate anglers, each striving to be their best on the water. We support a variety of anglers spanning many different target species in both fresh and saltwater. While many things separate each member of our Pro-Staff, they have one thing in common: an unwavering commitment to using American Made Fish Hooks.
