Jack served in the Marines in Souel Korea during the Korea Conflict in the 1950's. He then worked at FMC until 1984, at which time he opened Cobb's Bait and Tackle, which later became "AJs Place." His passion was making fishing lures that turned him into a legendary musky lure maker. Cobb's Famous Action Lures have been sold all over the world. Jack also enjoyed and was very passionate about girls' softball and was a long time hitting coach - he loved his girls.

Jack was a devoted husband and father and his three daughters were his world. He never met a stranger and treated everyone like family. L-O-V-E represents the core of who Jack was and he will be sorely missed but his legacy will live on forever.
