Image Maybe I should sell some of my old lures instead of using them. Image

I'm trying to figure out a way to get this one past my wife. I don't think using the old "It will make me a better fisherman" argument will work this time.

Ya got your bow and arrow warmed up for that one? It's just to lure them in so you can spear them.......

If its in great shape it probably didnt catch a thing.A largemouth hitting on that a couple times would left some dings.I have a couple old "Canadian Wonders" with the red dot and made from the mother of pearl.I have ant. gear but like AMX said I'm still using them.
When youre up to your rear end in alligators,its hard to remember that the initial plan was to drain the swamp.

I'd have to say... Rare or not, I couldn't ever see paying that much for a lure. I have to agree with pooh, that's a healthy down payment on a really nice boat if you ask me.

Unbelievable! Who would pay that? If ya think about it some of the lures we use today will mabey be considered "rare", not to us but to
our childrens, children. Makes me want to hide away a few odd lures still in the package?

the most i sold a lure for was for 300.00 just because the color of the lure was hard for collectors to get. the old box's can bring a bunch of money to as the are usually toss'd so hence are hard to find.
