Miscellaneous Old Fishing Lure Gallery


In this old fishing lure gallery you will see examples made by a wide array of old fishing lure makers.

With thousands of old antique fishing lure makers out there, it could take years to do specific pages for them on. In this section of the Old fishing Lure, we will focus on and pay homage to the lesser known makers visually. For a more detailed description or history of the Antique Fishing Lure, please see the Misc. header Page.

I will try to notate extra information for each of the old fishing lures shown, such as the dates the lures were made, the companies who made the now antique lures.
