6 inch sea shad.
My all-time favorit is Hicky-Do by Ray Waren from Mass. Mid 40shttp://stripersandanglers.com/Forum/...id=20622&stc=1
Nice, the tag on there says they are herring plugs. Have you caught a lot of stripers on them when they're around or have you stopped using them because of their collector value?
His shop was in an old barn located on Great Herring Pond in Cedarville Mass. Where he operated an old peddle lathe to make his lures.
It was a one man operation in the mid 40s.He was well known and they caught a lot of fish.On the box it said "Heavy enough to get out there"
Great piece of history, Aage. Love reading stuff like that, thanks for sharing it.

hound dog[2017]
cool. The last ones look a little like gizzard shad?
ya know what,you're right,didn't think of it but yes.
seems that color combo was killer last year.
I had a plug and a friend of mine wanted to test swim it.
I had it rigged to test out so,I told him to clip it on and sling it out there.
he did and liked the swim,,,then a sudden crash and drag peeled,,at that point I said to him,pay me now,it's yours.
he totally hammered fish with that plug almost all year,wish I had it now to take a pic and show it.
it is beaten to death and still swims great almost no paint on it.
ya know what?,,,I have a pic of it new,before I sold it to him.
have a look at this http://stripersandanglers.com/Forum/...highlight=2014

danny/hound dog hybrid.
That tilapia pic is unusual. Released from someones fishtank?
you know how it is florida,folks release live fish into ponds and they get spread out all over.
this is just a retention pond in his complex,it's just 4 years old now.
he said it there are channel cats,LMB,big bluegills and tilapia of several species in there.
they were breaking 14lb mono just after the hook is set,I guess they surge down when hooked.
he sent me a pic of a diff kind of tilapia that was very colorful and had wide fins,it was huge like 5 lbs he said.
I lost the pic of it,I think I saved it but,have not found it yet,if I do I'll post it.
