Here are a couple of Whitmore cray's the black and red shallow diver has a rattle and when Ray first used it at the Windamere Golden Classic he won $1000 in the dash for cash, he gave me the lure and the following year I won $500 in the dash for cash.The second deep cray also has a rattle in it.

Ray was the orignal owner and designed alot of lures that never made the market Im not sure what or how it come about but Paul started up Deception Lures and Ray stopped making the shrimps but decided to make other styles and called them Whitmores.
 
Ray also made marlin lures (skirted pushers) when I was a young whipper snapper and also made a range of baltic minnows without the resin on the outside and half x quarters and stuff similar to Jensen Pirks for throwing off the rocks. He just loved making lures he could catch fish on.
Alot of the one offs I have he basically caught a fish on it and gave it to me or dad.

The rattling one is a different variation and has a great story with it, thanks for sharing.
