I have searched around the net for a couple of hours and I think it might be a River Runt and Cotton Cordell.

But far from sure.. Do anyone of you guys recognize the lures below?

The bottom one looks like a Shakespeare Little "S", the next one could be a "DAM" Bait.

Looks like a Little S to me, especially with those raised eyeballs. Used slowly as a wake bait they are awesome on bass.

Thanks for helping me with the picture.
I spent an hour plus and eventually it came down to ask to remove the post or just link the picture. Was it simple move it here?


OT:


Yes definetely looks like a "little s". First time I hear of it.

Regarding the possible DAM, witch might be missed, is the fact that the lure only has a hook at the very back.

And it dosent seem like its ever been a second one.

Here is another one I personally think is beautiful with no-name:

And another one that looks like an early ABU Killer. But perhaps "only" a homebuilt one? I think someone has put new eyes on it:

The green one looks to have been "re-worked"! It has a hinge like the ABU Hi-Lo and a belly "toilet seat" type hook hanger but the front looks like a replacement bib. Also new paintwork. It is a very nice lure though! The other one does look like a re-furbished ABU Killer or foiled Rapala. Also a very nice job...

Cool. I bought the green jointed one from a mid-aged womans heritage.
She claimed that it never been used (by her grandfather).

However she also believed it to be from the 50s. But only paid about 5 USD including shipping.

Make sense that its Swedish since I live here. Yellow one was about 4 USD.

This reminds me of a South Bend Finn-Oreno.
