BSeven Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Can anyone tell me what kind of crankbait this is? Such as brand name and model? I have found it in my grandparents garage so I assume it is vintage.? It kind of resembles the style of a wiggle wart but I know it is not a wiggle wart. It also has a deep knocking sound inside of it. Thanks, I am just curious to know what exactly it is so if anyone knows just let me know! https://ibb.co/T4fxy98 https://ibb.co/r4yDYr3 https://ibb.co/Gsr9005 https://ibb.co/mJ7jR1Y Quote

NittyGrittyBoy Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Ahh, boring night on graveyard shift... I been digging some more, I'm about 99% sure it's a Cotton Cordell Wiggle-O Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted April 11, 2019 Super User Posted April 11, 2019 That's an odd one. I don't know what it is, but it does not look like a Wiggle O to me. It looks balsa, not plastic. Can you tell what material its made of? Quote
Super User king fisher Posted April 11, 2019 Super User Posted April 11, 2019 I think it is to long to be a Cordell wiggle o. I had a strike king Crankbait that looked exactly like this one back in the late seventies. I forget the name. Didn't catch many fish on it, and remember it was discontinued after a couple of years. Could be wrong, its been a long time. Quote

It has a one knocker deep sound to it. I don’t think it is a wiggle o because of the bill location on the body and the body shape. It has pretty distinctive eyes that are cut in and dimple styled similar to a wiggle o but the body is different. It is weird though I have searched the internet forever looking to find something like it and cannot. Quote

Super User scaleface Posted April 11, 2019 Super User Posted April 11, 2019 I thought that resembled an old strike king bait . Google Syrike king Psycho Scout . Quote
rboat Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Yes, it really looks like an old strike king to me also. 1 Quote
