Help Needed! Tracking down any leads/sources on old family lure
Gillark posted a topic in Wire Baits
I'm not quite sure if this will bring about anything but I figured that I would try anyways. For years my dad, and late grandfather, have told me stories about a lure that my late grandfather designed and sold. This would have been decades ago called the Carter Spider. Simple design from what I have heard. Simply put it was a customization of a spinnerbait with a bit of rubber that allowed the skirt to move through the water similar to a spider. From what I have heard it was such an amazing lure that supposedly big name bass anglers would even use it, if I remember correctly even the likes of Bill Dance and Jimmy Houston. Not entirely sure if I remember that 100% correctly. Anyways, what I am asking is if anyone knows anything about this lure, or most importantly, if anyone knows if one still exists. It would mean the world to me if I could find one and present it to my dad. His dad, my late grandfather, owned a store in Hot Springs, AR and custom made rods and this lure I believe it was called something along the lines of Carter Fishing Supplies. Thank you for your time.
