Paw Paw

The Paw Paw Bait Company

The Paw Paw company evolved from the old Moonlight Bait Company that was created around 1908. It is unclear exactly when Paw Paw was established, but it's likely sometime in the late 1920s. Some of the later lures made by Moonight appeared early on in the Paw Paw line.

 In 1924, Clyde Sinclair and Floyd Phelps purchased the Moonlight Bait Company and changed it's name to the Paw Paw Bait Company of Paw Paw
