Description
The Charmer, known as" The most attractive fish lure any angler ever cast" was patented in 1910 by Frederick W.Breder and John H. Loyd. The lure was manufactured by the Charmer Minnow Co in Springfield, Missouri between 1910 and1920 and is the mother of all the "Barber Pole Lures". Originally developed as one piece with propellers, it came into production as two pieces with the rear section designed to spin as it was retrieved, the twirling making the fish dizzy !
All lures come in an attractive wood presentation box and a copy of the original lure patent.
Come and visit Heirloom Lures at the 2014 Homecoming Craft Fair and Maine Marketplace at the University of Maine Field House October 18 and 19, 2014.
