Nice stuff guys, glad to see the boys come out to play :happy:

I can't come close to what is posted. Here is a small darter collection.

And some stuff that just took out of storage

Wooden Musso's. There was a post earlier about the action of the swimmers. One is a surface swimmer, one is loaded and a diver. Notice the different location of the line tie loop. Lower = surface, higher (close to center) = diver.

who ever is reading this, go back 3 pages we went pic Nuts to night.
Nice stuff Guys

Back to Masterlure stuff:

doeas anyone have any pics of those old giant Fred Arborgast Special editions 1/2 plug 1/2 rubber....I haver an oppurtunity...what are they worth

I had only one PM showing but I deleted that one. So if it is showing my box is full I do not know what is going on.

Anyway, VB and Adam I am so jealous of your collections it's not funny. I only wish I did not stop for ten years because of my bad experience with the Poores. To think of what I might have. But this thread has inspired me and I am getting in the game again.

Thanks for the inspiration. Now let's see some more!:D

Aye Carumba....... Maybe tommorrow I read the instructions on how to get pics Up.....I see NIB Plugs.I don't understand the Infatuation with old lures I like new an shinny stuff:D

Thanks for the info and the warning Capesams. I know they ain't that cheap anymore, hell they weren't that cheap ten years ago.
I am not going maniac but I will stop at yard sales and fleas a lot more. Thanks for sharing your collection. You got some sweet stuff.

Thanks to all who have posted so far but we ain't done!:hs:

Thanks a lot for sharing these great collections. Im curious as to how much effort and time it takes to amass such a substantial collection ?

Oh, and i found that wearing the extra large size pampers or huggies helps a lot when viewing this thread . I just finished my 2nd box.

I was a wierd kid. When my parents, brothers and I came to the cape for our annual vacation instead of getting a t-shirt or a pail and shovel my father would bring me to a local tackle shop and let me buy a lure. He never ever tried to influence my purchases, he just let me buy what I wanted. I still have the first one I ever bought. It was that 2-3/4 oz. Blue Pencil Popper I posted in the group of Gibbs Pencils and that was 1963 at Red Top.

Over the years my interest has come and gone and come back again. I was active in the late seventies and early eighties but had bad experiences with some "serious" collectors and when my two daughters came along and the new house etc., there was no time and no money. Of course the hobby has taken off since then and prices are still way out of whack as far as I am concerned but as they say something is only worth what someone is willing to pay and some people will pay anything to have some of this stuff.

:bl: :btu: :laugha:

500+/6700+ and still going!:kewl:
Anyone do a lure count total so far? Ya gonna need DSL!:D
