About us
With a passion for Bass fishing and the great outdoors, Phat Pak Baits was formed in 2019, during the middle of the Covid-19 Pandemic. Our Mission is to provide an industry leading larger pack size, keeping the angler out on the water longer.
Our goal has and will always be to inject our baits with the highest quality dyes, plastisol, and glitter, giving them the most lifelike feel and action of any bait on the market.
Our plastisol is American Made, which means the quality of the plastisol was tuned to give the baits more natural movement in the water column, mimicking the prey the soft plastic is imitating, thus increasing the anglers odds in catching the fish, by making it very difficult for the bass to distinguish the real prey, vs our bait.
This means our worms are super soft and float, our stick baits are loaded with salt and slowly undulate down in the water column, our jerkbaits and swimbaits are durable, yet soft enough to give the bait more lifelike action, and our craws/creatures have floating claws.
We are a customer feedback driven business and have made over 80% of our color and mold offerings through feedback and insight from our customer base. Many of our colors were created from the actual baitfish or crawfish found in the wild, giving them that “Match the Hatch” look and feel, which ultimately increases an anglers confidence in the bait.

Bio: My name is Mike. I live in Mesa, Arizona. I make amateur fishing videos for fun. Welcome to Flip-Flop Fishing AZ! I've fished all my life but just recently got serious about bass fishing, something I've never really done before. I started in July, 2022 and after a couple of weeks I caught my first bass; a 2.6lb largemouth on a ned rig in a Tempe canal. Since then, I've taken up kayak fishing and have caught 100's of bass and other species.
I decided to start videoing my trips because I LOVE everything about FISHING and think it's really cool to be able to go back and replay these great memories. I am not a professional. This entire thing is a work-in-progress. I am amazed and flattered that anyone would want to watch my videos but here we are! Thanks for visiting!!

Bio: I’ve been fishing since I could remember, my father used to toss a minnow on and give me a rod and let me stand in the water with my diaper on and cast and play around with. I remember being out in our old aluminum boat and him tying on crankbaits for me because I liked casting far, he’d be trout fishing but I was having fun. I stopped fishing for awhile and after Covid hit and I was working from home I started seeing bass fishing videos and it peaked my interest. I started with a piscifun combo and went out my first week and didn’t catch anything for the first few and then caught 3 bass back to back and I was hooked! Fast forward and my girlfriend and I have matching fishing kayaks and get out in the water ever chance we get! I’m hooked on fishing again and getting into to tournament fishing!

Bio: My name is Dalon.. been fishing for whatever bites since I was a kid! In the last 5-6 years I’ve dove into bass fishing and it’s become a passion/addiction for me. I’m always out at our local lakes and ponds at least a couple times a week. I do most of my fishing out of my kayak. I compete in all of the local kayak tournament series and the community of anglers we have in Arizona is incredible. I also help run our local AZ Urban Tournament group where we run bass tournaments at our local ponds and canals.. so I’m fishing everything from the biggest lakes to the smallest mud holes in town. You can find me on all of the social media platforms as “deejfishes”. I’m stoked to be working with PhatPak baits this year! Been throwing the baits for some time now and have nothing but confidence in them.. Tight lines!
