Modern Fishing Lure Collectibles by Russell E. Lewis (2007, Hardcover, Illustrated)

I bought this book because I am going through my fathers estate and trying to figure out what to do with his stuff. He just happened to have a huge box of fishing tackle and I have no knowledge of this stuff. My father was 74 when he passed and some of this tackle is old vintage stuff. Since I had no idea what I was looking at, I searched for some books to research the fishing lures and tackle and I purchased this book.

The book is very informative but it appears the stuff I have was made prior to the stuff in this book. At least I got an idea of what kind of lure I was looking at and I became more familiar with the types, models, etc.

I have not sold the box of tackle yet in my store, but this book definitely helped me gain some additional knowledge.

Excellent reference for every "Fishing Lure Collector".The series of 5 books are a must for the serious collector!The text is well informed & the photographs of the "LURES" are well represented & illustrated.Each book in the series makeS a beautiful "COFFEE TABLE" type to be displayed!

The book was very informative. I had some old lures that was my fathers and it helped me to decide what to sell them for

Very good source of infromation and pictures. Wished I had it a long time ago. would recommend this book to all interested in collecting fishing tackle.
