Here's a picture of an extremely old Musky lure that has been passed on to my dad... Estimated age of lure is at least 75+ years old. There is no name on the lure. It is made of rubber with a steel leader running through to the hooks and roughly 9 inches long not including the leader. It is in perfect condition. Has never been used and I was wondering if anybody knows what the value is or who makes it or even if there is any information about it at all... Thank you!

wow, 75+ years old:yikes: that thing was definetly ahead of its time. look at that detail. theres lure companies today that dont craft a bait that well. that probablly speaks volumes about the inventor and how good an angler he probably was....sweet, i hope someone can shed some light, im interested too and i have never seen one till today.:16suspect
