Old Wooden Fishing Lures

[GreatLakesDigger]

I have these old fishing lures and I was wondering if anyone could tell me how old any of them are, any background on them, and if they have any value. Three of them are not marked, but the one with the metal tail spinner is marked with "pflueger Trademark Made in USA" with a bulldog on it. I am no expert on old fishing lures so thanks in advance for the help.

I had some of these and put them on ebay, some fetched quite a few dollars!

The red and white lure (last on first row and first on second row) is a Bass Oreno from South Bend. Agree with creekhunter!

The longer red and white looks like a Lucky 13.

The longer red and white looks like a Lucky 13.

Agreed.

The longer red/white one is the bass oreno. The person that posted the lure as a bass oreno miscounted on the picture. The face on the Lucky 13 would be concave so it would go ka-chug when it was worked across the water and wouldn't have the divot on the top...d2

Agree with d2. I opened my tackle box and took out the Bass Oreno. You can see the name on top of the lure.




They also made a Midge Oreno too.

I have seen all those except the small one with the double hook, pics 6 &7. I would bet my pension that it is the one worth big bucks.

in the northeast we called them plugs, poppers, jitterbugs
I used for bass fishing
cast your line, let it sit and then give it a continuous slight jerk while retrieving to make it pop on the water surface to attract fish,
all made of wood, they would float
