Ice Fishing on Antique Fishing Lures

When we think of antique fishing lures, we often imagine the tools that our forfathers must have used for fishing. Yet, some people collect antique fishing lures and even use them from time to time. What distinguishes new models from older ones is that modern lures have a sleekness and a luster that make them a lot more similar to live bait. Actually, stiffness best describes antique fishing lures. A feature recognizeable in old and new models alike is the imitation of the insect look for some of the designs.When you collect antique fishing lures, they are most likely to come with a story that you'll remember and tell to friends and family when you get the occasion. Normally, classic lures can be used with any type of fish, with some exceptions due to variation, species and habitat. Information is pretty scarce on older fishing lures, because the new models are in the spot light at present.
Although a different terminology is used for antique fishing lures, classic or old models are still available with some stores. Auction houses and some Internet sites could be the right locations to make an acquisition. The models, the prices and the availability vary from store to store, but if you are keen on finding precisely an older model, you may get it after a persistent search. Sometimes you have the chance to find these old lures in modern specialized shops, too. You can also get the information about the places where such lures can be bought from other hobbists.
When searching the Internet for antique fishing lures, you may also come across some very interesting materials on the history of fishing, the evolution of fishing gear and the tradition of the manufacturers. You can also find books and guides, collectors' information as well as specialized publications such as fishing magazines.
Some antique fishing lures are sold for small fortunes, but there are buyers for them despite the very high costs. Such highly valuable designs can be even one hundred years old, and they usually belong to mature collections that are occasionally sold at auctions. To give some approximated price, we'd say they range between $1,000 and $5,000. They usually end up in the possession of passionate collectors who belong to exclusive groups. From time to time other collectors try to step into this group but they cannot be considered buyers at the first level.

Ways to Find Fish.
If you are out with a friend ice fishing and there's a chance of breaking ice, make efforts to stay at least ten feet apart to spread out your weight. ), the following bait will bring you even more success. Tip them with gall worms, crane fly larvae, mousies, mealworms, wax worms, or maggots.
Fish the offering with a light shake or quivering movement. Try levels from 1 to 3 feet off bottom, over depths o f10 to twenty feet. I remember terribly obviously the 1st time he took me out on the ice. I knew that with my pop at my side I was safe from harm. After the 1st talk on safety, the wooden plank which covered the four foot long by two foot wide hole in the ice was removed. I never questioned him, or desired anything more but to make him proud of me, and have fun. For crappies, employ a Swedish Zit jiggling spoon, Rapala ice fishing plug or live minnows fished on No Crappies can postpone at just about any depth, from some feet below the ice to just off bottom, in water from 5 to twenty feet deep. Yellow perch use the same baits as for crappies and bluegills. Wet flies and sprites with a sp lit-shot crimped a foot above for weight are good, as are tiddlers, spinners, jigging spoons and ice rapalas.

If need quick depth sounder when ice-fishing, can make one with little bobber and...
Fish the offering with a light shake or trembling movement. I was so happy to be included in his fishing trip that I could not sleep the complete night previous. When we got out onto the frozen lake I remember hearing the ice creak underneath the wheels of the van as we slowly approached the tiny wooden shack that would home us from the elements for what's left of the day. I remember being troubled as the 1st 'POP. But then, I took one look at my dad and all of my fears where dispelled. I knew that with my pop at my side I was safe from harm. Once within the ice cabin we lit the little heater in the corner and my dad went over some of the safety rules with me. After the 1st talk on safety, the wooden plank which covered the four foot long by two foot wide hole in the ice was removed. One look into the murky darkness below and I became the poster boy for ice fishing safety. As he instructed me, I soaked up each bit of info he shared, and followed his lessons to the tee. I never queried him, or desired anything more but to make him proud of me, and have fun. Over the course of that day I caught half a gallon of trout, and had the time of my life.
I regularly think back on this story when I'm in a position to guide men. Wet flies and sprites with a sp lit-shot crimped a foot above for weight are good, as are tiddlers, spinners, jigging spoons and ice rapalas.

When I used to be a kid my pa would take me ice fishing with him and his chums. I remember terribly obviously the 1st time he took me out on the ice. I remember being troubled as the 1st 'POP. But then, I took one look at my dad and all of my fears where dispelled. Once within the ice cabin we lit the tiny heater in the corner and my pop went over some of the safety rules with me. After the 1st talk on safety, the wooden plank which covered the four foot long by two foot wide hole in the ice was removed. One look into the murky darkness below and I became the poster boy for ice fishing safety. My dad went over the fundamentals with me and then showed me how to correctly drop the line and the way to watch it for a bite from the fish. I regularly think back on this story when I am in a position to guide men. For crappies, employ a Swedish Zit jiggling spoon, Rapala ice fishing plug or live tiddlers fished on No
Trout shoal areas, the mouths of inlets, and points have produced the most rainbows, browns and brookies thru the ice.
