Posts: 1638 Location: Minnesota | You have a few old ones . If you number them it will be easer to identify them. But you have generic Daredevils Johnson silver minnow I see a pikey minnow a flat fish but like i said put numbers by them it will make it easier | ||

Posts: 983 | I'll try and do that...I thought few of the spoons generic but the old wood plugs and divers are sweet | ||

Posts: 983 | These older looking rapalas the Heddons I believe they are...do guys still throw these? They look really cool and being wood seem durable and look they they could be productive just curious if anyone still throws these lures...Can you trust the hardware on these being so old? | ||

Posts: 983 | jaultman - 10/26/2016 8:18 AM Here they are with numbers for you 25homes. Thanks my man I greatly appreciate that I couldnt figure out how to add the numbers that will help greatly thank you.... I know 21 and 22 are the jointed vamp heddon which 24 looks similiar but smaller then 27 is very interesting shape but is also made of some type of metal and a few of these older ones have the leaders attached to the lures these worry me being this old actually all the rings and attachments worry me...will prob replace rings and hooks and get rid of original leaders if this is done will these still hold up or am I taking huge risk of loosing fish? Lil worried about where you attach line cant replace this and wonder how it will be after this long but quality of build looks solid to me actually is impressive to me for the age | ||

Posts: 1325 Location: E. Tenn | Here's my semi educated guess.. 5, 11, & 17 River Runts, 10, a Bassereno, 12, they call it a "Bayou Boogie", but I think it might have been called something different back in the day. 23 Creek Chub Pikie, 25 & 26 Flatfish.. | ||

Posts: 983 | 24 I believe to be creek chub pike actually saw the new ones of these but bigger in field and stream last night on sale.. Nice like 6-7 inch jointed they are plastic now and not wood but they were on special if you buy 4 they only $5 each which way cheap for musky lure | ||

Posts: 135 | #27 is the most interesting to me. It is a South Bend Peach-Oreno, manufactured by South-Bend, but original made in the 1930s by Julius Swanberg from Illinois. John | ||

Its made of some type of metal and has wire leader built into the lure not sure that I trust that leader though | ||
