One part of the business is developing and designing high quality fishing and outdoor gear. Baitbox specializes in graphical as well as physical design, with focus on delivering the highest quality in everything we do! Another part of the business is digital film making where I’m , together with three friends, are currently running one of the largest fishing channels in Sweden on YouTube ( link below ) With approximately a million views each year and constantly growing! Baitbox was founded back in 2010 and I have been working with it part time ever since. I managed to turn Baitbox from a hobby project into a profitable business in 2016. In 2018 one of our lure designs: Baitboxbomben was mentioned as to be “Sweden’s most wanted lure” by one the largest fishing magazines in the country (Link below) ! With lures selling for over 2000SEK ($225) each. One of the brands owned through Baitbox is the brand “Ytspänning”.

Media Producer & Product DesignerBaitbox Jan 2010 - Sep 2016Sundsvall, SverigeI started Baitbox in 2010 together with a friend, as a hobby project to document our fishing trips. It later grew to become one of Sweden’s largest fishing channels on YouTube. With Baitbox I have had every role possible, I have throughout the years built several websites and blogs , as well as the most recent webshop for Baitbox.
