When your buddy says...

The book "Salmon Plugs of the Nothwesr" published in 2005 is the considered to be the Bible of known plug history. The first few that I checked out, Stephenson 1931 plug, Seattle plug, and a number of wooden Louie plugs.

Here are a couple of Nelson plugs, the banana model is interesting, and a cool looking Martin.

So far, everything that I have posted, I will fish. I'll be using a majority of these gifts as props in my PEETZ museum display that I have been working on.

A couple of the famous Alaskan plugs. The chrome one is an early model with the release clip on the base.

I really love the look of these HANSON plugs. I bet they swim amazingly well.

Mac's Squid salmon plug and a hot looking L'il OLSEN wood plug. I think that it will slaughter.

The End.

Another buddy found me some Trout Louie's by Lucky Louie.

If the fish bit any lure made 100 yrs ago, they'll bite it even today. The angler changes the tackle market, not the fish. 🙂
