About Us

The Berkley story is deeply rooted in the idea of the American Dream. It's about hard work, struggle, and tough times. And it's about building partnerships to accomplish goals. Still, the story of Berkley is much more than the story of Berkley Bedell. It's also the story of dedicated co-workers and loyal customers, who were equally willing to take risks.

It all began in Spirit Lake, Iowa, in June of 1937, when 16-year old Berkley Bedell took 50 USD from his paper route earnings to start a business selling his hand-tied flies to fishing tackle shops and vacationing anglers. In his upstairs bedroom, with hair clipped from the family dog, Stubby, and feathers from the backyard chickens, young Berkley crafted flies to entice local bluegill and bass from their underwater cover. The Berkley Fly Co. was founded.

By the time Berk graduated from high school in 1939, he was employing several area girls who made flies, silkworm gut, and cable wire leaders in their homes. The business soon outgrew Berk's parent's basement and living room. He expanded to the second floor of the local grocery store, using a tub filled with ice and a fan for air conditioning.

After attending the state university and serving in the Army Air Corps, Berk returned to Spirit Lake in 1945 to start Berkley and Company. The business focus was on its cable wire leaders. One evening, while reading Popular Science, Berk learned about a Connecticut company that was producing nylon-covered cable for sailboat rigging. After visiting their plant, he began to work on nylon-coated wire for use in fishing leaders. production began in Spirit Lake. Shortly after this, the distinctive Berkley heart logo was designed with the slogan "nylon leader with a heart of stainless steel."

Berk next became interested in extruding nylon monofilament fishing line. At that time, all nylon came from DuPont. After receiving a license from DuPont, Berk returned to Spirit Lake to begin work developing equipment to produce nylon. The initial extrusion equipment consisted of reclaimed washing machine wringers, bicycle wheels, and other homespun materials. Soon Berkley was marketing private brand mono as well as Dew Flex monofilament. Ongoing experimentation would soon yield the company's breakthrough innovation - Trilene.

In 1959, Berkley introduced Trilene at about the same time DuPont introduced Stren. To help introduce the new line, Berk sent out thousands of sample spools of line and asked store owners to have their best fisherman try it on a spinning reel. Fishermen loved the line and it began the successful launch of Berkley Trilene.

The next four decades were a time of great growth for the company. In the 1960's Berkley entered into the rod business, which lead to international expansion in the 1970's. Soft plastic baits made an appearance in the 1980's. The 1990's through today have seen significant technology improvements in all of the Berkley products. From the beginning, Berkley has committed significant resources to research and development - a continuing strategy that has resulted in countless product innovations, including Berkley Trilene, the Lightning Rod, PowerBait, FireLine, and more recently Gulp!? and Gulp! Alive.

Just got my Gulp bait in today and I have to say I was disappointed! The product description states they're 1in in length. Maybe if you stretch them when you measure them. They're more like 1/4in to 1/2in in length. The price was good but it would be more expensive and time consuming to send it back. Overall I'd wouldn't buy this again. Amazon sells other soft baits like this that are better.

Along with everything else in 2020, we're now in a shortage of waxies in my area. I ordered these up just before I was able to find a dozen waxies at the gas station for 3 bucks. I performed a test with both with the following results. The GULP bait was hammered on by the panfish. It retains form, stays on the hook, and doesn't get mushy like a used waxie. The smell is potent. They must be made from fish guts because the stench is overpowering on the fingers and lingers for hours. have your sanitizer ready in the truck when you're done for the day. Fish seem to love it and I caught an even mixture on the GULP and waxies. Price wise, the GULP are a superior value to the waxies. More for the money and zero dead loss. If I had to pick one or the other, I'd definitely take the GULP. Easy to fit in the pocket and no sawdust residue. Wish I'd have discovered this item sooner!

We mostly just pinch these into thirds so that my three young kids can catch endless bluegill, but a few days ago I shoved three of these onto a weighted hook, tossed it into my local lake, and was rewarded with an 18 inch trout.Now, in fairness, I'm really bad at fishing and I have to admit that there have also been 4 or 5 days where I've been troutless all day on this and every other thing I've tried. But my kids and I are up to 2 trout with these maggots and 0 other (non-bluegill) fish with everything else. That should speak volumes.

If you are like me going fishing almost everyday buying worms gets pricy! That’s why these were great I’ve caught, bass, crappie, perch, bluegill, catfish, chubs and other species on these! Multiple ways to rig you can use under bobbed or jighead with a few of these, you can tip crappie jigs with these too, I love the size as it allows for you to catch small fish and if you want a bigger fish you just add a piece and so on. I highly recomend this product for any angler! Please rate my review if it helps it is unbiased and I paid for the item.
