Came across a box of baits that I got somewhere along the way..... Probably my Grand Fathers or an Uncle’s. Wonder how old this stuff is? Had an old H&H for .39 cents in the box also. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/11/full-9268-74488-bb005d60_6223_49ba_b898_7d56516a8405.jpeg)

Come on man. The spinnerbaits were the 1972 classic winning models....

Good batch of old lures.  Probably purchased ~1974-1980 time frame and still catch fish today.
Slide right, coming in .... Fish On!

Excellent find. Thanks for sharing. The Fox Model SB. is my favorite. I won lots of tournaments on it back in the day. Flip Tail made a twin tail 3.5 inch that I used as a trailer on those SB's..

I have caught a ton of fish off of those Fox model baits myself. I still have probably about 20 of them that I just put new skirts on and keep going. I can still remember saving up my change to but a whole card of H&H spinnerbaits that would last me a summer of fishing all the ponds around the house.

That Fox Model was the first spinnerbait I ever bought. Caught some fish on that in the San Diego River

After SOB closed and the owner passed, his son sold off the remainder of his inventory on ebay. I bought 150 of the spinner baits and various assorted widgets. Still catch fish on them too.
