According to page 5 of Harold Smith's "Collector's Encyclopedia of Creek Chub Lures & Collectibles", one of three known Creek Chub prototype rubber Pikie Minnows! 4-3/4" Jointed Pikie is finished in perch scale, and features a marked diving lip, cup rigs, and atypical solid yellow glass eyes. Condition is rough showing cracks and wear with missing rubber on the back and the belly, but given its rarity, this is a must have bait for the Creek Chub collector who has "everything". A very rare opportunity to add something special to your collection.
