The house i bought had a very small tackle box in the shed and 7 years later i finally decide to look in it and theres some baits in there that i assume is old? Any idea what baits are in the first picture? It has the name Manns on the side of them. The second picture it says Heddon Chugger Spook and the last picture says Heddon Meadow Mouse.

I assume these are old(ish)? Appreciate any info !!

I had all those last two back around mid 70s - Chugger was by far the best of them. The Manns came along a few years later I think.

Agreed on the 2nd one being a Heddon Chugger.. I think the 3rd one is also a Headdon bait that was trying to resemble a rat, but I don't remember what they called it.

Those diving worms are crazy. Not sure if they are valuable but I've never seen one

Seems like the Manns Hard Worm also had a topwater version with propeller(s).

Bottom one is a Heddon Meadow Mouse. My granddad used them all the time.

Those hard worms were killer baits.

Man, I used to catch a lot of fish on the hard worm. It was so brittle tho, one rock or hard stump and it was done.
