There's one I still throw once in a while that I can't remember the name of. It's a crankbait with a plastic skirt tail and a metal keel that enables it to come over timber, even with its two treble hooks. Anyone know its name?


Is it an old Clark's Water Scout or a Strike King Spence Scout?

That would be my guess, but I could not have come up with the name, Spence Scout.

I just rebuilt the four old petrified H&H spinners I found in an old box. I'm working on replacing hooks on several old rattle traps that were in there too. I'll use the old stuff first. It's already been blooded.

Another for the Bomber Pinfish. I really wish Bomber still made those.

+1 on the Pinfish, they are great for ripping thru the hydrilla grass and just the right wobble.
We bought all we could find when they stopped making them but now only have a few remaining.
Also have not found anything like them from other lure makers.

"..The pleasantist angling is to see the fish
Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.
