this one could be easily made is you can use lead wire for the head and a course to tale you could use a wide variety of material but marabou was more used.
Bob yes I remember them! That skunk kind of reminds me of the No-Name Lure!
oh and we lost power last night for 6 hours and didn't get it back until about 1:30 AM!

I like the ones in the second photo.
would you buy them if they were available again. they were pretty deadly many years ago but I cheated we would use a little bit of crappie and put on the trailer it was deadly that is what we used to call cut bait seems like the fish could not resist their own human bodies must be the smell or something that they were attracted to but it always work. check your game rules before you do this.
I would like to hear more from you guys on the good old days and some of the fishing tackle that was used for crappie it has come a long ways since the late 50s and 60s when the little jigs were available in the above pictures it would be fun to turn back the clock and fished in many different ways we used to using cut bait from the crappie was the most common when I was a kid.
Here is the No-Name Lure.

skip I noticed that the no name had a patented on it.
Busted out the old school......good post
Mike the picture was taken off of the Internet I wish I did have some of them the company sold out I believe a long time ago in the cutting machine to make those little metal bodies I was trying to locate it and put them back in production but I haven't got a clue where any of that stuff is anymore and I come up empty-handed I chased a few leagues and ended up nowhere. is far is the no name could be made in a little skunk can be made.
