page in book showing Wiggle Diver lure in upper right hand corner of page. Could use a clear scan of that photo and also anything it might include in text about the lure. Trying to identify lure maker. Have found others like it. Not Shakespeare or Creek Chub Wiggle Diver. Thanks a bunch.

Sorry Colby that’s all it says in the caption. I don’t recall if it was mentioned within the text of the book. It’s been years since I read it

Wiggle Divers were frequently made for deeper fishing lakes like Lake Herrington here in Kentucky. I have collected about 60 of them made by various small makers. I also have all but one of the Creek Chub wiggle divers. I really like them. The bottom wire hanger is very wide on the photo above. But the main way of identifying the makers are the paint patterns, which are hard to see on a BW photo.
