Old CREEK CHUB TARPON PIKIE Fishing Lure Click HERE for more Antique Lures.

Here's a rare one - a Tarpon in Special color Day-N-Nite - and in the box with papers!!!

The lure is 6 1/2" long. Condition is excellent overall, with some age cracks & light dings. Right glass eye is fine but the left one is cracked.

Color paper catalog has a stain & is faded from some mildew, but may be cleanable - I don't know the process. No tears or rips though, and it's legible all around.

There's also a Creek Chub order blank, which is in good shape - soiled from being in the box, but no rips or tears.

Box is in good shape with light soil inside & out. There is some paper wear here & there, but all seams & corners are tight, with none broken or worn through. Boxtop end is marked Special C.C.B. Co. Lure, No. 4021.

A Heddon 740 punkinseed in uncataloged color goldfish. It's in super condition, it's hard to find with paint still on bellyweight. It has a tiny rub and a pointer.

There are literally hundreds if not thousands of different fishing tackle lures on the market today. Some are very effective at getting those bass, trout, walleye or other fish to bite while others don't do much to attract anything at all. Choosing the right type of fishing tackle lures can mean the difference between success and failure when it comes to catching your dinner.

To understand why some fishing lures work and others don't you need to know a little about how fish locate and are attracted to their food source. This is really quite simple, fish find their prey in two ways by si......

Our tenth style of wooden lure (and the second to last in this series) is also one of my favourites - bibless wooden lures.

Of course, the name describes the main feature of this style of wooden fishing lure. Bibless wooden lures are designed to perform their task without plastic or metal bib sticking out to make them wiggle. That doesn't mean they don't wiggle though, far from it in fact!

I was raised on a cattle ranch in Southern Idaho, and we were lucky enough to have two nice fishing streams course through our property. I became an avid trout fisherman early in my child hood, and have continued to enjoy the sport since that time.

I own a veterinary practice, and when I get the chance to take a day off, I am lucky to be within an hour drive of good trout or walleye fishing. Southern Idaho has many reservoirs and lakes that are well stocked with trout. W......
