My brother in law gave me this tiny jitterbug. I've been doing some searching and I can't find them for sale anywhere. I can't find anything about them. There are a few on ebay and it appears to known as the mini jitterbug or 1.5 size. Can anyone tell me anything about them? Are they discontinued? Were they popular?

I would assume discontinued if you can't find them on arbogast's website.  Back in the day when jitterbugs were popular they had a whole ton of sizes.  The 1.5 was the smallest that I remember.  They are super small, especially when you get a jointed musky jitterbug next to it.  I think they are around 1/4 oz or so and tough to throw on a baitcaster because of the bill.  You also have to work them slow or else they blow out.  Should be a good pond bait for you though.
