I know some of these are valuable antiques, but as long as I continue to catch fish on them, I'll continue to sharpen the hooks and throw them.
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?

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.

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.
