Flambeau Outdoors
About Flambeau Outdoors
Flambeau Outdoors has been a trusted name in hunting and fishing equipment for over 75 years, with roots dating back to 1947.
The company was founded by brothers W.R. Sauey and Ed Sauey in Bruce, Wisconsin, who used their combined savings to purchase parts for a handmade injection molding machine.
Their first product was the Halik Frog fishing lure, launching what would become a major force in the outdoor industry.
The dedicated Flambeau Outdoors division was formed in 1977, focusing specifically on hunting and fishing products and storage solutions.
Today, Flambeau Outdoors continues its commitment to American manufacturing, producing high-quality tackle boxes, hunting decoys, and outdoor gear with over 70 years of experience.
