I found this old worm in my dad's tackle box. I remember he had a bunch of them and they were dynamite. This is the last one I have left and I would love to get more or something like it. The only markings on it are the word "Ranger" It must be from the 70s or 80s. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/Kv5Oe2A.jpg)

If you can't find that exact worm and you start looking for something close to it. Check out the Yamamoto Cut Tail Worms. They come in several different sizes too!

Looks like a Mann's Jelly worm. The only difference really seems to be that the "barb" on the end of the tail isn't flat on this one like it is on the jelly worm.

Don’t use it, make a mold of it and then you can pour your own.

Barlow’s is internet/phone in order only at this time. Due to the flu season, the store front is closed to customers until further notice.
