Hey gang,

looking for some info on some baits i got at a garage sale recently. one is a small balsa crank and it has "Tiny R" etched into the bill. The other has "Dartn E" written on the belly and is a jerkbait. the last is a Poe's bait but its not a crank (i have some RC coffin bills). it has a jerk bait body but with a real small bill. maybe a twich or wake bait of some sort.

my boater at a recent BFL got real excited when i mentioned i found a Dartn E at a garage sale. i've googled all 3 baits but came up with nothing so far. any info would be great.

thanks,

JRS

The Tiny R is (IIRC) a Rebel lure.

If you can put some pictures up it would probably help with IDing them.

pretty sure the Tiny R is not a Rebel. its a hand-craved balsa bait.

i'll get some pics together.

I think the Dartn E was made in Ky and is a prized bait by the guys that fish the Ohio river. Dee baits, Wee baits, and Lazer lures were all based off of that little bait, if my info is correct. I pretty sure that the Tiny R is in that same family of cranks also.
