I have several old collector item lures and i enjoy carving duplicates from wood and then catching fish with them. I use a company called janns netcraft to order my component parts from. Fun to catch fish today on duplicates of old lures such as river runts and zara spooks.😊
Ok, that was great. I love the walk-thru's of old outdoor magazines. Great stuff! The discussion of the Creme worm and Heddon Crazy Crawler was fantastic too. I've got a few old Crazy Crawlers that I don't throw nearly often enough. It's nice to see the Japanese embracing old lures like the Crazy Crawler and bringing new variations to the market. Your connection between Crazy Crawlers and the cicada hatch is spot on. Great video!
Thanks David!! Always appreciate the support! I thought about mentioning the modern JDM connection to the crazy crawler. I totally agree, I love the new spin on those old classics. Thanks again for watching!!
Outstanding content. Something interesting I learned while in the Navy was that commercial fishing companies would buy decommissioned Navy ships, take them out in the ocean and sink them to create artificial reefs and fish habitats to fish around. I thought that was pretty cool. Not much of a market for that in Kansas.
Really?! That’s awesome. I’d like to see a video on that. It would be cool to see what the fish habitat looks like today. You’re right… here in Kansas the closest thing we have to that is a sunk Jon boat at a farm pond 😆 thanks for watching!
I remember finding a crazy crawler in an old tackle box my grandpa had back in the 80s. I asked him what it did and he said just go tie it on and throw it down at the pond. As a kid I remember thinking how cool the action was
My Dad worked for his Uncle, Fred Arbogast assembling lures back in the early 1950's in Akron, Ohio. Dad used to row Uncle Fred around portage lakes while Fred fished for bass. Saw many old pictures in the family album.
Wow! That is awesome. If you’d like to share any stories and photos I’d be happy to make a video about it. Here’s my email. anglingarchaeology@gmail.com
That would be a really fun video to learn what it was like at the Arbogast factory, and the history from a family perspective. Please let me know if you’re interested.
I did enjoy your vids... Yup, I agree under-rated. I just tripped over the Arbogast, and viewed this as well. Good, friendly, easy going and fun. I also have a couple old Gibbs spoons, no longer available, and I use them for salmon, which really p*sses *off my guides when I want to use them. Copper under silver, and a big skinny red & white. I catch the first & biggest every time, and the real torque to their attitude... You cannot buy them any longer. Due to the salt corrosion, I'm a good customer for my local jeweler. I re-plate my silver and my gold spoons as nothing works like the real thing. Nickel actually looks grey/black in deeper water.
I remember finding a pack of 6 and one with a harness 3 hooks and beads & spinners! The one thing about the cream worms out the bag they would melt the plastic trays in a My Buddy metal tackle boxes and the paint on some wooden lures! Actually caught a bass with the three harness worm, the other worms I would just tread them on a gold Aberdeen hook with a couple of split shots and a bobber on a cane pole! Nobody I knew fished plastic worms Texas rigged back then! Outdoor Magazine was the bomb back in the 60's and the $1.00 snag proof green frog! CMTFU!
Ok, before I watch the video I have to ask, what tv show is your intro theme song from? My wife and I know we know it, but we can't pin it down! And as soon as you say it we're going to slap our foreheads and go "YES!"
Haha… I don’t know if that song was ever officially on a TV show but’s “Feels So Good” by Chuck Mangione. I was trying mimic a cheesy 70’s style TV intro and that song fit perfectly 👌🏼
@@anglingarchaeology My gosh, that's right!! No wonder we couldn't igure it out. It's all coming back to me now. That was a singe, not a theme song! Sure sounds like the theme song to some cop precinct show though, like Hill Street Blues or something. I must have Oldtimers Disease. Ha! Thanks for clearing that up...that's been bugging us since your last video.
Joe's Sporting Goods in Tyler, Tx. first showed my dad a plastic worm shortly after the Cream Lure company opened. Joe, and my dad, Pete Wright were friends and fished together. We were visiting my grand parents in Sarasota, Florida in the 1950s and dad brought along some of those "new plastic worms". We fished Lake Okeechobee and the Myakka River... Using those plastic worms we out fished even the local fishing guides... I was only 7 or 8 years old at the time... and dad was passing out plastic worms to everyone, and explaining how to fish them. He even made a "long distance telephone call" all the way from Sarasota to Tyler to tell them about those plastic worms and could they send him some more to give away... The Cream Lure Co sent a big box of plastic worms... about 1 foot square. I have a bunch of those Cream Worms in the original packaging. Looking back, I was there and saw the first plastic worms and how they changed bass fishing. ( I also saw the Bushwacker spinner baits and the Bomber Lure Company and how they changed bass fishing... I think they were out of Gainesville , Texas )
Thank you for writing in and sharing this. What an awesome experience that you saw first hand how these changed Bass fishing forever. Thanks for watching!
Nothing at all to do with fishing but i found your comment on how refreshing that Schlitz Beer ad was & it was up till the point you opened one & drank it, yuck !! just like Ballentine they were awful tasting beers & personally I'd rather drink water & just fish. They were neat old ads back when they cared about advertising & not just sex & junk to sell stuff &it's no surprise to see beer ads in old fishing mags & the artwork was always thoughtful & made you want one even if they did taste terrible!!! Cool as heck you have many old catalogs we don't see anymore & i do have one of those Crazy Crawlers which is fun as hell to use at sunset & at night. Love your channel & what i see as your collection. Very nice indeed. 🪱🐟😊

Those old magazines are the most exciting.

Chuck Mangione, fish on!!!
Nice video. The magazine review was great. The T Zone !!

How about A Buck Perry /Spoonplugging Episode ?
That would be cool. They had some awesome colors/patterns. I’ll add that to the list. Thanks for the suggestion and for watching.
