I bought this lure around 15 years ago and I believe it was made by Wade lures but I'm not sure.
I thought it was called a Wades Wide Glide.
Does anyone know what the name is?

I hava bunch of Amma bamas, Yeah It definitly looks like one and works like one but it is not an Amma Bamma.
I bought this from Musky fever a long time ago.

Location: NeverNever Lake		I zoomed in closer and it seems like the hook hangers might be through wire insted of screw eyes. Dancin' Shads have screw eyes. Not sure about Bamas. Through wire indicates two haves glued together construction.

Had one years ago that a guy gave me. He called it a Harley jerk, because somebody that worked for Harley Davidson made them. Don't know for sure, but it does look like it.

It is definitly NOT an Amma Bamma. That I do know. I have quite a few Ammas and he signs and dates all his lures and the construction is different.
And like I said I bought this myself through Musky Fever 15 years ago and I'm pretty sure that when I bought it it was made by Wade lures.

Location: Il		Here are a few I have of that lure. I am almost positive your right on the Wades part but I dont know the name and they are not amma bamas for sure. Is the glitter on yours on top of the clearcoat or in it.

Definately not an Amma Bama, the nose looks alot different. I would say it's a Wades Wide Glide, check out Smokeys Musky Shop, I believe they have some.

I would say its a wades for sure, the wire.. I bought one from Reeds about 7 years ago, I ordered a Amma Bamma and they sent me a Wades o'Bamma...

The non coated glitter sprinkles is what gives it away..
