We'd guess it will be and it couldn't happen to better fishing-folks.
Brig Mitchell was my uncle I used to watch them press them out and the girls painted them, You could not believe how many fish have been caught on these lures. I lost a whole tackle box full of the strawberry wobblers, Brig specials and even some blanks that were not painted.
My cousins and I used yell from boat to boat, what are biting on nickel brass, brass copper they had different medals on both sides. or my personal favorite the brig special. This brings back a lot of memories. Have a good day
