olmoose,
Strawberry wobblers. About half a dozen guys got together down at foundry at geneva and they made the first original molds. I think they were copied from there out. Meaning many more. The brigg special I believe become later called the Shaboom. It worked as well as strawberry wobblers did. They also made the mold that made the carter spoon too. That pink and white carter spoon was the hottest thing for 4 or 5 years. before they started selling it to the public. Yes I still have my strawberry wobblers. I still have my shabooms. I asked a little old man down to deer creek one day what was his favorite lure to troll with. he told me carter spoon but couldnt find no where to buy them anymore and he had lost all but one of his. So it didnt take me long down to the coffee shop to give him my dozen carter spoons. Now of course he had to put new hooks on all
of them. Cause 20 years ago I fell in love with the jig. I think I have almost forgot how to catch trout trolling. Maybe
Just my 2 cents. A little side note my pops worked at geneva he would get 13 weeks vacation and 3 weeks sick pay. Now you know where I spent my summers. Fishing the big Berry.
