I'm pretty sure the one is a phantom but the small beady eyes throw me, is it a really old one?

The second my buddy grabbed me at a lure swap, I know its a twistd sistr, but its profile is narrow and it has an aluminum prop instead of metal.. I'm not sure if its a really old lure possibly first run or prototype?

And in regards to value, they both seem like they aren't current standard production, are these worth holding onto and not using?

At the swap I told you the Big mama was one of the first ones he made(which was told to me by the guy I got them from). I got the other one. It has the two holes in the aluminum tail. Old school big mama.

the one I got for myself was a little larger, but still had the aluminum tail and the two holes in it.

I really like the glider, I love that it has the scerw in for the weight. you can really get it down there, but then again it may screw up the action. To me, I would never buy or get a lure I didn't plan on using. I would throw both of those for sure. But then again if I found out that they were both worth money I guess Id me really peed off if I lost one. to each their own i guess

I sold you the twisted sister. It's From one of the first runs that bait has caught fish and will continue to do so if you throw it.

The glider looks alittle strange for a phantom but very simular. Usually they have the triple split rings and I've never seen one with the insert between the front hooks. Maybe it's a real old one but looks just a little off.
