I found these lures while cleaning out my great uncles house after he passed. they appear to be homemade and I beleive he probably made them,I was just wondering what you might be targeting with such lures?maybe pike or muskie? any way I thought I would share them with you and see what you all thought.

Yeah I would guess Laker or Salmon spoons. Very cool indeed.

My grandpa used to make spoons like that out of old shoe horns. In fact you can still see the company's name on the underside of his spoons.

Not positive but I believe he used them for pike/muskie as I can't recall ever seeing him holding a pic of a salmon/trout

My grandpa used to make spoons similar to those, he used them on Lake Trout in Lake Superior.
