PAY ATTENTION

If you have any interest in old wood atom 40's.

it's my beleif that uppon further inspection of the older atom 40's that Mr. Bob made two[2] swimming style's of the same lure.

One being fatter in the tail end with 2"1/8 of lead,,making this lure a slower swimming tail wiggler than it's counterpart w/no lead,,making this lure swim with a much tighter/faster tail wiggle.

sneaky man that Mr. Bob.

BOAT fish do count.

Oh, goodie! Atom 40 class! Let's have it CS. I'm about to spin and I don't wanna make poo.

after Bob ran outta wood an got himself a girlfriend.

all plastic came after the wood,,,wasn't making any money so he met up with gentlemen from RI who just happen to own a machine shop where the mold[1] was made..I say one because that one mold made both the swimmer and reverse...the man who made this mold is still around and is making the same lure in a smaller size..same plastic too...weighted/unweighted..but only in reverse right now.
