While researching and collecting old lures, you find some that are rather "strange". This is one of them.
This lure is made of wood and features 4 stationary hooks. The hooks do not swivel or turn, but are solid in the lure. This is the only commercial lure that I am aware of that has this design.
Along with the odd hook system, the lure has an odd swiveling blade on the front that causing the lure to spin on retrieve. The action on this lure must be "all over the place". But, I believe that would make it a good fish catching lure?
This was the only lure made by this company that I am aware of.
