Heddon Antique Lure Gallery 3

In this Heddon lure gallery you will see examples made by James Heddon of Dowagiac Michigan. Certainly one of the most prolific old and antique fishing lure makers of its time Heddon created a variety of lures for close to a century. You will see a myriad of baits that were offered by Heddon in either standard or special order methods. The lures below were and are fished mostly in fresh water. Below are some Heddon lures used to target, Salmon, Bass, and Musky.

 I will try to notate extra information for each of the old fishing lures shown, and or the color name, or series number shown as a visual reference.
