Two-Oreno
South Bend Bait Co
South Bend, IN
1937
It is the depression in the USA. You have lost your job and have little money. You want to fish to feed your family, but only have the money to buy one lure. Do you buy a shallow running lure, or a deeper diving lure?
Neither. You get a Two-Oreno...two lures in one. Hook your line to one side, and it is a Bass-Oreno...a shallow running lure. Hook your line to the other side, and it is a Pike-Oreno...a deeper running lure.
This wood lure had tack eyes and came in a variety of colors.
