You could mention that it was used until fishermen realized rattle vibrations were better and started using bb's instead and they caught more.

I have no insight in classic plugs However I am curious how a lure that caught for years or several years suddenly stops catching all together ?

In light of the historical nature of the article, perhaps mentioning the use of mercury is warranted with a note about its extreme toxicity. Talk to Cliff Richer who's had to deal with mercury abatement on the job to get an idea how dangerous mercury is.
