Family and service—especially to my local fire department—are two of my greatest passions. One winter while ice fishing, I had a moment of inspiration: a vision for a tip-up that could solve the common frustrations many anglers face.

With the encouragement of my family, I dove headfirst into turning that idea into reality. After years of development and multiple prototypes, I launched Firehouse Products, LLC. Our first release, the Firehouse Tip-up, brought a new generation of innovation to the ice—and the response has been incredible.

Since then, we've expanded our lineup with a second tip-up design called the R-Tek Claw and are now launching a new tip-up line, continuing our mission to bring smart, practical, and durable gear to the ice fishing community.

This is just the beginning. I’m excited about what’s ahead and committed to pushing the boundaries of innovation in the ice fishing world.

Thanks for visiting—and feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
