RARE COLOR HEDDON TRADE MINNOW

Red Body, Black Spots is a pattern normally found on Heddon’s “Ought” line of minnows, but it was never standard on this round-body 150 Dowagiac minnow. This bait would have been for sale by a secondary tackle retailer such as Tryon’s Kingfisher line or VL&A around the early 1910s. Still in a remarkable state of preservation with solid glass eyes and a fully concealed belly weight, this super rare Special grades Excellent.

Item Dimensions: 3 - 1/2" L.
