Hey Everyone! I'v been collecting lures for about a year now and was excited to find out my home town made a couple lures back in the 50's. The company name is Challenge Tacke Co. from Meadville PA. I have been able to find the Adjustable Wing lure but have not been able to find the Spinner Spoon. If anyone has one I can buy for a decent price please let me know! Also looking for a boat trailer for a 12-14 foot boat within 50 miles from Meadville before summer hits! Thanks, Ashley

If you go to the www.outdoor-fishing.com site, ask JoeW about your lure. He is a major long time collector and knows much about collectable lures. You'll also love the site.

Are you sure about the lure company? I did a search for them and only got 2 hits. Chances are they were a local company that didn't sell nationwide.

I found an ad in Popular Mechanics May 1952 pg.103 http://books.google.com/books?id=kN...&q&f=false I found this ad on the web BUT My Great Grandfather collected these magazines and I might be able to find the it in my dad's basement.
