I went to Michael's on Friday and they were having a 55% off sale on all their frames and boxes. I got this 16x20 for $18. They had a big 2'x3' frame that would of been around $50. Hobby lobby also runs a pretty good sale on them also. My mom was saying if you download either of the stores app, you get a coupon for 40% off one item.

That's awesome! Thank you! My lure doesn't have fincheroo stamped in the belly like I'm seeing in a lot of the articles. Hope it's not a knock off. But he wont know any different lol

So for my dad's Birthday I decided to make him some wall art for his new house using lures from a few tackle boxes I have found this year. We both love to fish, so what the hell, I gave it a shot. I'm not the most creative person in the world, but after 6 hours, I think it looks pretty decent. I numbered the lures and I'm going to put a list on each side of the box with the name, manufacturer and a rough estimate of when it was made. Y'all have helped me identify a few of these odd balls but these 2 seem to be a problem. The one with a hole in it I thought was a Spinno Minnow but it isn't. So any help would be appreciated and any input on the finished product would be great as well. Thanks!

BASS302 got that covered for the Whopper Stopper Throbbers. It was the middle row of the first picture. Now I'm down to the Top row of the first picture. One of the lures actually has info on it but no luck with searches. it says BURKE 2019 SA-MON PLUG. I'm aware now! Im just going to have to get a lure collecting book and get to reading

good chance Im 1 thru 8 lol. what should i look for that seperates the 2?

I'd say Doug English. I guess not too many people were fond of the OSX color. That link is pretty awesome! Thanks alot!

correct on both! Bill Plummer frog but close enough! lol message me your address and I'll send you one of the Whopper Stopper Throbber if you want one. Thanks for the info!

Most of the basics I can identify. They are stamped with legible info . The 6 in the first picture and the frog are the ones I need help with. I can't find any info on the black king bingo. The others were posted just for people to look at and tell me which ones they've had success with. Im new to identifying and can't just look at a lure and know what make/model/year it is even tho it's missing markings. I'm working on it tho.

I sat down for a few hours trying to research these. A lot of them don't have any info and I just dont know enough about lures and such to go based on what I see. I wish I did know more. I can't even find a picture the black king bingo. Im sure it's color pattern is referred to something else.

Its funny that you say that about the shadow box! My dads birthday is in November and I was looking to send some of the old school ones his way depending on what everyone says here. I havent just thought it over on how to display them but a shadow box would be pretty cool! I also thought about like a "live scene" display but I'm just not real artistic haha!

I've picked up a few "old" tackle boxes over the past few weekends and had a few questions on some of them. I have 2 of the King Bingo's that are black. I cant seem to find any info on that color of them. Then i have 2 of the ones where it looks to have a spot to rest the hook on the lure itself. These 2 are rubbery. The rest of the lures in the first picture dont have anything written on them that I can see to help identify. Then the other pictures I posted are in case someone is bored and wants to point out anything awesome to fish with and/or possible rare stuff I skipped. Picture number/row/column should work for the most part The problem I have is a dad that has a million lures but I always find him digging in my box. He's good about returning them for the most part but it always seems that my favorite ones come up missing...? He likes that I got a lot of old school stuff so i wanna be able to put him on blast when he loses one. Example: "Hey Pop's! That was a 1913 Purple Headed Creeping Water Crawler!" He gets a little flustered when i pick at him because he has no idea how to use Google. Even tho he carries an iPhone 7 for some reason. He needs a flip phone still. Also need an idea on a reasonably priced bulk buy of replacement hooks. Thanks for looking and any help is appreciated.

Hey everyone! Im new to the fishing forums and came looking for some info on some lures. I grew up with a .22 in one hand, tackle box and pole in the other and a pocket full of shells. I'd leave Grandpa's house at sunrise and was told to come home when hungry. Im only 31 yrs old and alot of people my age don't understand that where i grew up at. My school year was in Arlington, Tx and weekends and summers on 300 acres outside of Durant, Oklahoma. 95% of my fishing is done in stock tanks or ponds. I dont have much experience with big bodies of water, but hope to change that in the upcoming years. Thanks for having me!
