  1. The Floating and Countdown don't have rattles - this does.
  2. I can live with that - long as things are close...though it'd be nice to be exact. We're gonna skip the 'knockoff' (left, second down) and the really paint damaged one (left, third down)...it's missing about 1/2 the paint. So LAST ONE - no markings at all on it 2-3/4" 3/16oz - has rattles
  3. Umm - this is a little off from the BL Rat-L-Trap This one is only 2-1/2" and 3/8 oz - original is 3" and 1/2 oz Original is #7 - my sizing chart (printed from Jann's) shows them as #6 - so a little big.
  4. Hah - found it - L.C. Flash Minnow 85 in Bait Fish Silver I print out mini-labels on a Brother P-Touch for everything. Weight for everything , Cranks and Jerks I put the running depth on them as well as if they're Suspending or Sinking. Label is applied to the side of the compartment in the box - that way I have instant knowledge of the important things.
  5. Bless you Also took a closer look to the one under the Sk Pro Very faint printing on the under-side 'Flash Minnow' - now to look that up.
  6. Well, if we can't - we can't. I'm just hoping to get most of these identified. Though we are making great progress...current 'snapshot'. Thanks again for all the help.
  7. No - it's a glued in inset. Just has a thick clear-coat over it.
  8. Who knows - I'm just glad you guys are helping me pin these down as I'm a bit OCD about knowing exactly what I have. Next - another unmarked - 3-1/4" 3/8oz - with rattles.
  9. Pic is a little off - live it looks more like 'Gold Chrome/Black Back/Orange Belly' - as it does have a black stripe on top and definite orange color on bottom.
  10. I like it - except the pics I find Online for that one shows the Bomber Logo near the tail. This has no logo - anywhere. Could it be an earlier one before they started stamping the logo on?
  11. Today on the hit parade. This little gem is 3-1/2" 3/8oz and unmarked with any identifiers. One thing of note - the lip on this baby is WIDE - a full inch at max. And yes, it has rattles.
  12. I feel for you Koz about the moving. From 1980 to 1986 I lived in 6 different places - 5 of those in the same metro area, but different addresses. I've been in my current home since May of 1986 - probably stay until I can't take care of myself anymore.
  13. Wife wanted to stay up reading a bit more - so I examined...and added another Deep Down Husky Jerk 10. Gives me 4 now...the new one was a 'Rapala Ireland' in Tennessee Shad.
  14. Probably be tomorrow - it's bedtime for Bonzo I did figure out two more - was a little confused because they were hookless Two more colors of the X-Rap 08 So we're about halfway through the pile - thanks to Smells and Blue for the help so far. Oh - a snap of my 'tracking' spreadsheet - these are the lost ones identified so far
  15. Ya, I think we'll go with that. Close enough anyway...don't want to spend forever on this. I also looked back at the 2012 SK Catalogue - it pretty much agrees. And my replacement hooks and split-rings should be here tomorrow. Spend at least part of the weekend re-equipping these lures.
  16. MH/F is the 'Swiss Army Knife' in rods - can't do everything, but can do many things. T-Rigs, jigs, chatters, and spinners are what I toss on my MH/F. That's what I'd get for a multi-purpose rod. I haven't experienced the T-Wing - I've been more than satisfied with my two Fuegos.
  17. KVD 1.0 is silent - this has a rattle...sorry I didn't mention that before.
  18. Still seems light - but I'm checking back in Archive-Org now
  19. One thing you should know - the Tatula CT is just a Fuego CT with the T-Wing system and bearings in the handle knobs. Otherwise they're the same reel.
  20. Removed one from the unidentified pile myself - X-Rap 08 in Yellow Perch...was thrown off because the rear treble lost it's 'fluff'. Have to look around then at SK's site...maybe on Archive - might be discontinued
  21. Ummm - few differences Pro 1XS is only 1/4 oz - this one's heavier - almost 1/3 ox Line tie on this is right against the bill base - 1XS, it's above it a little Eye on this one looks smaller.
  22. Well, I've had the ponytail as long as I've had the beard. She doesn't like it, but I told her that if the 'tail' comes off...so does the beard...so she lets me keep the tail.
  23. Next up - unknown Squarebill - 2" .30oz - it's got a dot of pink around the front hook mount...no markings of any kind on it.
  24. Wife was a little skeptical when I started the beard - now she won't let me shave it off. This one was a L/XL - ordered off Amazon...lucked out that it fit me just right...can loosen the straps enough to put a zip-up hoodie on under it.
  25. Well, I've still got 9 more to go through - 11 total, but two pair are different colors of the same lure.
