Fishing Lures
Here is some fun for you fishermen.
Can you correctly list the common names (or nicknames) of these lures?
Example: "Mexican Flag" feather = green, white, red...colors of the national flag of Mexico.
The winner will get a big hug from deck hand, Buffy. Remember her, she's the one with the two big bass.

One of my hero's way back when worked on a garbage truck. Had more fishing lures
than you can imagine.  People tossed 'em , he collected 'em. No telling what they're worth now.

George, you need to at least post a picture of you two together.
Then I can have it blown up and made into a nice dart board.
Just kidding. Best of luck, and congratulations!!!!

No. 2 - "Lazy Ike"..confirmed, but disqualified.
This entry has been formally disqualified due to a sneaky manuever perpetuated by aquaholic to get me to divulge
lure info in a messaging service. A low blow.
"Lazy Ike"
Lazy Ike Corporation
Founded 1897 Fort Dodge, Iowa
The Lazy Ike Corporation began in 1897 founded by Joseph Kautzky, an Austrian immigrant. The Kautzky Manufacturing Company, as it was originally
named, started in the gunsmith business and over the years expanded into other lines of sporting goods.
Somewhere around the mid 1930's there was a fisherman in the Fort Dodge Iowa area named Newel Daniels that was hand carving what was to become the
ike.
Apparently Joseph Kautzky Jr. saw Daniels fishing the lure and remarked "look at that lazy ike." From 1938 to 1940 the entire production was hand made
by Daniels. When Daniels left the company in 1940 he turned over the rights to Kautzky.
Production then shifted to "Pop" Shuck who hand made them until around 1945 when lathe production began. Wood prodcution ceased in 1960 when the
plastic version was made.
Kautzky produced many baits, the most famous being the Lazy Ike. The Lazy Ike and the other Kautzky lures are not generally
considered to be collectible. However as the more famous lures are becoming a bit more scarce, the Lazy Ike Corporation and several other companies
are starting to draw some attention. For me, it's not about value with these lures. I have fond memories of fishing the Lazy Ikes for northern and
walleyes as a kid. (So did Nomad aquaholic, but he had forgotten!) This is the lure that got me started in lure collecting and I still collect and
fish with these lures today.
