Yard Sale Deal?

[cw_nsmf]

$75 at yardsale, new to bassfishing. Researched a little big seems like a lot of vintage lures.

Lots of good old baits. That's a good yard sale find.

Thanks bro, theres some wiggle wart and wee wart, thinfin, rebel. I know the older ones i seen on ebay can be worth something. I just know too much about them 

[Bankbeater]

You scored.

I hope that wasn't the yard sale I drove by yesterday 😂

[rangerjockey]

If that brown craw dad wiggle wart is pre Rapala its worth half of what you paid for the whole box.

[GRiver]

Yee haw ….. you scored, big time.

Was the person having the yard sale a divorced woman ?

[KP Duty]

That guy probably fished his whole life with that box and didn't need anything more.  What is wrong with us?

You are 100% correct! 

 

@cw_nsmf, you did very well! Not sure how correct this info is, but I was told that the old wiggle wart's have painted diving bills. I'm sure that someone will correct it if it's wrong.

It has "wiggle wart", instead of "Rapala" stamped on the underside of the bill, which that one does.

[rangerjockey]

Yep, those are the right ones. The shad patterns are painters around here but still worth 25 bucks or so.

That V37 looks really clean. I'd ask $50.

Did you buy them to make a little money off some old guy's generosity?? I'd ignore the impulse to sell them and focus on the impulse to fish them.

Someone else asked the same 😂 it was an oldtimer angler, really cool dude. Due to some health issues he hasnt been going. He had all types of trout and ocean gear too but the bass gear i dont have much of so i picked up the lot of it 

[MAN]

I like those 3 little Heddon Sonic lures hiding in there!
