This is a fairly recent lure, but it is rather unique. Not all collectible and interesting lures are old....
This mouse lure had a rotating head and not only did it spin when the lure was retreived, but it also "squeaked" like a real mouse. This, of course, attacks bass. Because of this, the lure is also known as "Squeaky Mr. Mouse".
The squeak is made by a small metal black on the head scratching on a metal plate in the body of the lure. Quite a unique design. Did it attract the big ones? Well, I am not sure...but I have catch some bass on it.
