Getting someone to sell theirs will be tough. I have two early jigging rapalas as well as some jigs that I got when I started. I took a few years off around 2000 but started around 1980. If you find something don't hesitate to contact the manufacturer, that's what I did with my first jigging rap. Love getting the email back telling it was the first design.

I've picked up a few old tackle boxes with various older lures and just have started to collect them. I would be interested in wooden lures of various manufacturers as well as hot n tots and wiggle warts slabslayer.

Ok. I'll look. Believe it or not I still use some of the original wiggle warts for bass. I send them off and have custom paint jobs put on them. :)

soon i will go thru my tackle and see what i have left , the original WARTS had a scooped out pocket right under the eye where you snapped the swivel on, the second gen did not have that and ran totaly different, i sent storm a letter explaining the difference , and they replied with some stuff and thanked me .

While getting some things together I found these two. I have no idea if they have ever seen water. Got them in some boxes from a auction a couple of years ago. If you want them they are yours. I will be headed to Ravenna on Saturday. I don't know where you live and I really don't have time to set up shipping. Let me know, I will also be at the expo in February all weekend.
