I think everyone was copying the Louie's, Luhr Jensen's first j plugs were actually sold under the name lucky Luhr, Silver Horde, Redl Big Butch, let alone the imports all same the exact same designs and sizes. The only difference that's really noticable to me is the shape and contours of the eyes.

Apologies if I am getting this thread off track , but is anyone familiar with the Cowichan Bay Coho Club and primarily the rules it operated under? I am really curious if the pins were awarded by weight and what the weights may have been? Thanks in advance!

Picked these up, Don't know anything about them but looked to have some age to them.

Cowichan Bay was world renouned for it's run of big feisty Coho back in the early days of sport fishing here.The area held the world record Coho at 31 pounds for many years.I believe that fish was caught in the 1950's sometime.As for those pins,I have no idea.My grand father or father would probably have known as they were avid Cow Bay fisherman but they've be gone a while now.I'd be interested myself as I'm 4th generation from the valley here.I'll ask around and see what I can find out about them.FF

Large one is a Barco, I have seen the smaller dodger style marked Seattle Jr. , Roy's 4/0 dodger, Seattle model 5 and numerous unmarked and hand pounded versions

Here’s a mechanical sort of a dodger, called a Superlex 3D.

Anyone else seen or used one?

The tail of the flasher flips back and forth on a spring loaded toggle.

Made in the US in the sixties, some say Superdee.

Here is a SuperDee in the package no address on it just made in USA, this is later than the originals which very well may have been made in Canada. They made a spoon as well.

Look at how much work and ingenuity went into making these lures from days gone by. Now a days, there is only a different colour tape or paint applied to a piece of plastic. Yes there are a couple manufactures who make them into a breakaway variety, but still the same piece of plastic basically. Nice to see the creativity of the thought process from days before.
