Ray Murski was an avid bass fisherman and outdoorsman. He fished professionally as an angler on the B.A.S.S. circuit from 1967 to 1972. He began his successful career in the outdoors industry by selling fishing, hunting, and other outdoor gear for the Bliss Sales Company, he was later named a partner, and in 1981 purchased the company. In 1995, Murski purchased the leading freshwater spinner bait company in the world, the Strike King lure company. Murski is a member of the Bass Fishing Hall of Fame but he told an outdoor writer once “I am most proud of the fact that I have given 50,000 Texas youngsters their first outdoor experience, whether they were fishing, hunting, boating, or camping.” Texas Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame seeks to recognize and honor those who have made a lasting contribution to freshwater fishing in Texas and to foster awareness and appreciation of and participation in the sport of fishing. #texasfishing #fishing
