Picked up a few yesterday. Very unique, very much like the SS needle but much fatter and longer. I've seen a lot of needlefish but none like these. Now I need to test them out...

Freddies in Montauk also has the needles.

Those eyes look like the ones on the production Super Strike needlefish. Who made them first?! Doesn't matter really - just curious.

Dave Manzi - you are saying that Beachmaster lures are better than YOURS?

Don Musso (Superstrike) used to make big wooden needles---some even bigger than that.

Most plugs look like someone else's. I mean, how many ways can you make one needlefish look different from another? Mostly, they're meant to fool bigger fish into thinking they're a smaller fish, and thus they all have to look somewhat like a fish You can trademark the name (Danny, Atom 40, etc) but it's almost impossible to get a patent.

Right you are, Mike - it's true of most lures, there is really very little new under the sun.

A friend I just met this past winter at the RISAA show (who is 82 years very young) makes a great tin called a 'Silver Bullet' that is like a J&J Johnston (or Clayton) jig, which is a deep bellied tin with an underslung hook like the original Johnston Jig (from the '30's) - which was patterned after the original Vom Hofe 'Sam's Spoon' introduced in the 1880's in NY.

My friend John also makes a spoon called a Scoopian that I have no doubt is patterned after a 19th century hand drail with a fixed hook and weighs in at a hefty 3 1/2 oz. I was bowled over, haven't seen anything like it on the market yet (and hey, no freakin' comments on me being old enough to remember the original, either.)

Didn't mean to threadjack here, but I collect old tins and realize everything old becomes new again.

If ya ever get the chance to introduce yourself to John Anterni, do so - his little company is An-Co Lures (JohnR, you can remove this if you feel it's inappropriate) - he has a lot of stories to tell if you listen. He's easy to recognize in South County - he's an 82 year old who's more nimble than most guys in their 30's.

As I understand it, he was with Bob Pond in the 40's, made the first molds for him. At some point, I'd like to do an interview with photos for publication somewhere if he'll agree. He's a helluva nice man and very modest.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Noooop, it's only spam when your schlepping your own lures or someone elses for advertising purposes against the rules of the site, not as knowledge to help the fishing community in general.

Besides, you have quasi-priveledges to schlep Antique Fish Porn

Picked up a few of the BM needles. How do you guys rig them? 4/0 in front ad a 4/0 bucktail in back? How about some big arse flatwing tails?
