Original Snag Proof Baits

The original Snag Proof lures were made in Ohio. I remember seeing these baits almost everywhere that sold fishing tackle years ago.                                           The Snag Proof hollow body frog was a big seller for this company, and I've heard some guys say the original frog was a great lure.                                                          They also made a crawfish, a leech, and I believe a weedless worm. We have baits made with the Snag Proof name now, but I've only seen frogs available these days.                                  I'm sure many guys remember these older Snag Proof lures. Did you ever fish any of these baits, and did they work well for you?

My buddy was on a personal challenge to catch a fish on all the originals. He made it most of the way. Problem with those was that the materials weren't fantastic and the hooks left much to be desired.

Fished them a lot. My dad and I fished a bay that had a lot of surface weeds. When I saw these baits I bought a couple for us. I was only like 12. It changed the whole way we fished and for the better. 
Thanks for a great memory of my Dad and I

When I was dating my wife we went to have dinner at her friends' farm. He told me to bring a rod and we would hit the pond after dinner. I caught a 6.5 lb on one of the Snag Proof frogs with natural looking legs. We weighed it and returned it to the pond. That was about 18 years ago. In all the years since I've hardly caught a bass over 1 1/2 lbs there.
