I still remember the day I got broke off using my dad's last Herbs Dilly on a stock pond I was fishing. He had already passed on and I couldn't get it out of my mind he was probably looking down at me thinking " Will boy, you've done it now!" I had that bait hanging in my garage and only used it about once a year for old times sake.

The material used in soft plastics has come a long, long way. But loved the smell of them...lol.

I fished them back in the 80's, but they didn't catch as many fish for me as the Crazy Shad or Devil's Horse. And I still fish both of them today. Another oldie I fish is the old Wobble Heads with the Creme Scoundrel worm on it. Not sure if anyone is still making the Wobble Heads or not. I looked at the guy on here that was selling "Wobble Heads" but saw that they are not the originals. I think at times they were made by Cordell, Arbogast, and Wobble Head in Monroe, LA. I THINK! They are still around and a lot of people around here still use them. I have some but never had much luck with them.
