I got three or four of those, that were in my grandpa's tackle box when he passed.
Made out of wood too, right?

Nopers Jimbo its plastic....look at the first pic you can see through it...heres one called a #2 multiwag...I have 2 of them and they are deadly on trout....pretty odd lure...when you retrieve it...if you go to fast it gets all messed up....same if you go to slow...but if you reel it in at a very specific speed it has this incredible "wagging" action....I have hooked some huge trout on them but I dont use them much as I have never seen any others...I loked online for info with no success...awesome design though.

Ah yeah I guess ya can see through it a lil bit. Mine were made out of wood.
It's kinda cool to look at the designs they used back then

Reminds me of one I had when I was a kid.  Called it a River Runt.   Could be the same....  Cool.

I think we have a WINNER  




It’s amazing the info that can be found on the net today.  Nasty... you may want to do a Google search 'cause some of those plugs are collectors items.  

Here’s one place that some of the fish hunters on here may find useful or at least pretty interesting.
