George Fenner Weedless Automatic Bait Lure
George Fenner Weedless Automatic Bait Lure was first introduced in to the market in 1925. A year later in 1926 his patent, 1571770 would be granted. This small spring hook type bait has been dubbed the WAB for short, or Weedless Automatic Bait. George Fenner and the Weedless Automatic Bait Company would call Oxford, Wisconsin home. This plastic lure was made of a new plastic “Pyralin” other companies such as James Heddon would test in the late 1920’s early 1930’s. This classic vintage fishing lure measures in at 2 1/2″ in length and is shown it is correct box. The lure is in Red & White, however keep your eyes open for some of the more rare colors including a black & white.
